Clearly on the Wacom X driver and identified correctly.

That all looks good.  Shoot, I couldn't remember if it gave us a
stylus button map or not.  Guess not.  Maybe only cursor?  Don't worry
about "Button Actions", it doesn't mean what you think.

So there is our stylus button map and as far as xf86-input-wacom is
concerned it is correct.

Alright so your Waltop tablet isn't being detected.  I wish I could be
sure that meant none of the configuration gui stuff was messing with
the stylus, but I'm not.  Although the correct button map from the
xsetwacom get commands sure seems to suggest that.

The gnome-settings-daemon runs after the xorg.conf.d conf files so
what it says goes.  And you can over ride it with an xsetwacom
command.  So what happens if you run these commands:
    xsetwacom set 10 Button 2 2
    xsetwacom set 10 Button 3 3
Any change on the stylus buttons behavior?  If the tablet isn't being
recognized maybe no gnome-settings-daemon key values are being
applied.  So if this works try uncommenting those button options from
earlier in the Wacom snippet and see what happens.  Actually try that
either way I suppose.

What, where is that in the last Xorg.0.log snippet you gave?  We know
the stylus is on the Wacom X driver (module) from the diagnostics you
ran above.
