I am experiencing this problem too on my IBM Thinkpad X41 Tablet running Ubuntu 
11.04. Maybe once or twice a day the cursor will begin flickering and skipping 
between the corner of the screen and the stylus issuing seemingly random button 
events.
The error messages in the Xorg log are exactly the same as reported by David 
Perkinson.

The only thing that really seems to take care of the problem
(temporarily) is to suspend and resume the computer.
