Public bug reported:

I am having some odd glitches when using the Bamboo Pen & Touch with
Gimp.

In "Preferences > Input Devices > Configure Extended Input Devices...",
if I set the mode of the "Wacom BambooPT 2FG 4x5 Pen stylus" to
"Disabled", which is the default, there are no glitches at all, but
pressure input is not recognised (see a.png). This is understandable and
not an issue.

If I change the mode to "Screen", pressure input is recognised, but
weird glitches when drawing lines occur, whereby the x co-ordinate, y
co-ordinate, or both, intermittently 'jumps' to zero and back (see
b.png).

The glitches appear to depend on movement speed; when drawing slowly,
the glitches are very dense and frequent, but as I draw faster, the
glitches are more sparse (see c.png).

This is on a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.10 with no changes.
