(reproduced more than 5 times, same procedure). same x server crash to kdm login at various times using tablet buttons or stylus. after further testing, problem seems related to x, configuration of xorg.conf yielded varying results, final issue seems to be: 1. if the commented lines in attached xorg.conf are both uncommented, behavior as described above. stylus button is right click and rotation via xsetwacom works. 2. if "isdv4" line only is uncommented, everything works fine but stylus button does nothing and xsetwacom (for rotation) does not find a device. 3. if "/dev/ttyS0" line only is uncommented xserver blanks upon x restart and all input is locked (have to hard reset). 4. if "/dev/ttyS0" line only is uncommented, and "/dev/input/wacom" substituted, stylus is completely unresponsive.
