Package: xserver-xorg-input-evdev
Version: 1:1.1.2-6
Severity: normal

I have a Medi@com-branded Acecad USB Tablet. The device is properly
detected and configured by the kernel: dmesg reports

input: ACECAD USB Graphics Tablet  as /class/input/input8
usbcore: registered new interface driver usb_acecad
drivers/usb/input/acecad.c: v3.2:USB Acecad Flair tablet driver

and /proc/bus/input/devices reports

I: Bus=0003 Vendor=0460 Product=0004 Version=0130

B: EV=b
B: KEY=1c01 0 70000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

The device is configured for evdev in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier	"ACECAD Tablet"
	Driver		"evdev"
	Option		"Name"		"ACECAD USB Graphics Tablet "
EndSection

and this is configured as follows according to the Xorg.0.log:

(**) ACECAD Tablet-usb-0000:00:1d.0-1/input0: always reports core events
(II) ACECAD Tablet-usb-0000:00:1d.0-1/input0: Found 3 absolute axes.

"ACECAD Tablet-usb-0000:00:1d.0-1/input0"	id=1	[XExtensionDevice]
	Num_buttons is 77
	Num_axes is 3
	Mode is Relative
	Motion_buffer is 256
	Axis 0 :

		Max_value is 0
		Resolution is 0
	Axis 2 :
		Min_value is 0

As a consequence, trying to use the tablet to move the mouse results in
extremely jerky mouse motion, and no pressure or button activity
reported.
