I've installed the 2.6 kernel in sarge, then (after reinstalling my
nvidia drivers) did "m-a auto-install wacom" to install the wacom
module, then rebooted. Now, instead of acting properly as a USB mouse,
when I move the pen close to the tablet the cursor jitters wildly up
and down. "xsetwacom list dev" still yields no results. The tablet
still works properly as a regular USB mouse in 2.4.
