I tried with  rebuilt 3.2.0-51-generic-pae Kernel with changes as given in
my earlier email and with the standard  xf86-input-wacom
(1:0.14.0-0ubuntu2.1) from Ubuntu repository.
I am happy to report The pen tablet is working in general and also with My
Paint sw. It is also showing up wacom tablet settings.

Thanks for your help.

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help push the changes to
upstream.

Sincerely
Arjuna
