No, thats not right.
what "/dev/input/wacom" does is basically apply your xorg.conf to any device that is a wacom product.
instead of one specific event.
The problem is that when you make multiple entries for the same device:
stylus/eraser/cursor/pad
you're telling the O/S that your tablet is actually 4 devices, and thats where the overlap comes from.
I made a post entitled: "ubuntu Hal Custom_Wacom.fdi"
Which explains that the way the driver is set-up cause Ubuntu to not be able to recognize more than one of the four at a time. Which kinda sucks.
