Nice to know, I've not updated to 8.10 yet because I wanted the LTS
option of 8.04 and sort of felt it would be a waste of time since the
updated driver did not seem to make any difference.

Some notes on the ttyS0 hack:
* Embarrassingly confused the -x with the -e option in my echo statement. Was 
intending to send control codes, but guess not. The -x may be omitted.
* The hack does not really ~fix~ the problem, what it does seem to do is slows 
the pen movement speed down to a point where it is no longer erratic. The side 
effect is that the pen does not track at full speed meaning things such at 
handwriting are difficult but it is 'usable' for some applications like simple 
graphics editing.


Tried googling for some type of whitepaper on the wacom interface but found 
nothing of relevance. If could find more technical information might be able to 
sort this insanely annoying++ problem. Examined the source code and tried 
sending a few of the obvious initialization strings to ttyS0 but nothing 
helped. u_u
