Package: xserver-xorg-input-wacom
Version: 0.7.7.11-1
Severity: important

The place I notice this is in GIMP (which associates different tool settings
with each "device" (stylus tip, stylus erasor, and mouse)). Switching back
and forth between both tips of the stylus works correctly.  However, when I
then try to switch back to the mouse (plain old optical ms mouse on a ps2
port) by moving it, it usually doesn't work.

Usually the tool setting will just stay on whatever happened to be chosen by
the previous stylus device.  I can still click in the tool window to change
tools (which also ends up causing the stylus to change to that tool when I
switch back to it). Additionally, clicking inside the image window with the
mouse after that does nothing whatsoever.

This is a problem that came up a long time ago.  I can "work around" it by
replacing /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wacom_drv.so with an older version
from december 2005.  Doing that completely fixes the problem. However,
Debian keeps replacing that file with a newever broken version at random
when I apt-get upgrade, which re-breaks it.
