[Aiptektablet-users] Aiptek Tablet 12000U and GIMP

Hello everyone,
I'm using the 12000U on a 2.6.10 Kernel (with the driver included), the tablet 
can be used with the appropriate kernel module and the X module also seems to 
be the newest version, like in the downloadable archive from Oct,28. My 
distribution is gentoo, I set up the xorg.conf according to 
http://aiptektablet.sourceforge.net/xserver.html and the tablet is used by X 
just like a normal mouse. 
The only problem arises when I use the gimp (with the tablet devices activated 
via Preferences->Input Devices):
Once I use the tablet stylus, the gimp switches to this device, and I can work 
with it, with pressure sensitivity and all.
The only problem is that I can't switch back to the normal mouse, the gimp 
keeps thinking that all input is coming from the tablet and won't let me 
paint with the mouse any more till I close the current picture.

Does anyone know how to solve this? How are your experiences with this 
problem? Does this have something to do with the Aiptek drivers, the Gimp or 
GTK?
Thanks, Daniel
