Wacom Intuos dies after system suspend

[Helgi Örn Helgason <sacredeagle@gmail.com>]

Hi!

I have a Wacom Intuos 2 Graphic Tablet connected through USB. When I
wake up the system after it's been in suspend-mode, the Wacom doesn't
work. According to Gimp it's still connected and checking with with
xinput gives me:

$ xinput --list --short
⎡ Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer              	id=4	[slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ Microsoft Microsoft Optical Mouse with Tilt Wheel	id=10	[slave
pointer  (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard                   	id=3	[master keyboard (2)]
    ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard             	id=5	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Power Button                            	id=6	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Power Button                            	id=7	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Logitech Logitech USB Keyboard          	id=8	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Logitech Logitech USB Keyboard          	id=9	[slave  keyboard (3)]

But still the tablet doesn't react to the pointer at all, the only way
I can get it going again is by rebooting the system.
This happens in all of my Debian computers, Wheezy and Squeese (also
some Ubuntu derivatives I've tested).

Can someone enlighten me on this? Surely there must be a way to get
this going without rebooting? A command or something?

Cheers,
