I had exactly the same problem. I have triple head setup so can't use
twinview.

First problem fixed by hacking x11 wacom driver.
http://akhil.homelinux.org/drop/t4by - this is my patch.

Second problem old and well known and there is a patch in gtk bug
traker:
http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=148495

With this patches tablet works well with one screen mapping and
switching screens via ''xsetwacom set "$toolname" Screen_No
$screennum'' which assigned to hotkeys.
