I have a laptop with a built-in track-pad, a generic USB mouse with ball (2d-wheel) and USB Wacom Intuos3 graphics tablet. All works well provided that I use only one or the other and have it plugged in continuously from booting up.
However, I would prefer to be able to plug in the tablet and mouse when the machine is running (or just before waking it up from hibernate). If I do that, then I end up with problems.
The trackpad works fine, but the mouse is unsuable; the cursor moves very slowly even when making broad sweeping gestures with the mouse. Similarly for the tablet, which seems to move only one pixel for each complete sweep of the tablet (although I think I've seen it moving slowly in relative mode as well).
My info:
Factory-installed Ubuntu on a Dell Inspiron 6400, upgraded to Ubuntu 7.10 (Gusty).

When trying to drag the stylus across the tablet, I get this syslog message, repeated with incrementing numbers; seems to come up once for every time I touch the stylus to the tablet (no messages from moving the mouse):

Can anyone shed some light on this issue? I am not sure what other information I can include
Many thanks,
