[Linuxwacom-discuss] Xfree86 "loses" Wacom sporadically (more info)

[Ed S. <ed...@ee...>]

I tried "init 3" to kill gdm and did a "rmmod wacom" followed by "modprobe 
wacom." Then I was able to cat /dev/input/event0 just fine, seeing stuff from 
the tablet. Then I did "init 5" and everything was fine.

But I sure don't want to have to repeat this every day! There's clearly 
something wrong with the driver. I think it is losing the tablet when the 
first pointing device I touch after a long while is the tablet.
