Forwarding a patch from a Ubuntu user...

"The Windows XP Wacom driver makes both the stylus end and eraser end of a pen respect the TPCButton setting (which makes it so you have to hold down the rocker switch and tap to get a middle or right click, instead of merely pressing the rocker switch), whereas the Xorg driver only recognizes it for the stylus end."

Attached is a patch that fixes it for the user. However, I wonder if this is just short circuiting desired behavior?

    There is only one button for eraser, the eraser button. You can not get the side switch button event when using the eraser. So, enable it or not would not cause any difference. I will apply the patch just in case...
