Package: xserver-xorg-input-acecad
Version: 1:1.1.0-1
Severity: important

I have a Media@com-branded Acecad USB tablet. This is properly detected
and configured by the kernel, but not by the X.org driver.

The relevant xorg.conf section is

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier	"ACECAD Tablet"
	Driver		"acecad"
	Option		"Device"	"auto-dev"
	Option		"ReportSpeed"	"120"
	Option		"Mode"		"absolute"
EndSection

According to the author's webpage @ http://acecad.sourceforge.net/install.html
this should be enough to let the driver auto-configure the USB model.
However, this is not the case, as Xorg reports:

(EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device auto-dev
	No such file or directory.
(EE) AceCad driver unable to open device

Trying to set the Device explicitly, either to the appropriate
/dev/input/event* or /dev/input/mouse* or /dev/usbdev* device fails
likewise.

This effectively makes the USB tablet unusable as such.
