#337 Xorg hangs for about 20 seconds when I turn off Cintiq 22HD.

[crocket]

If I turn off Cintiq 22HD, xorg hangs for about 20 seconds.
After xorg becomes responsive again, ~59MB of two error messages fill /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

[ 46.197] (EE) Wacom Cintiq 22HD Pad pad: Error reading wacom device : No such device
....
[ 67.525] (EE) Wacom Cintiq 22HD Pen eraser: Error reading wacom device : No such device

Thus, if I turn Cintiq on and off several times, /var/log/Xorg.0.log can occupy ~500MB.

While tail -f /var/log/Xorg.0.log is running, Xorg doesn't hang, but I still see those error messages. I don't know why.

I surmise Xorg hung for ~20 seconds because it had to write ~59MB of error messages at once.
