removing the Wacom devices from xorg.conf seems to have fixed part of the problem. But i am still getting errors like this:

DESTROY created new reference to dead object ' Qt::SpacerItem', <> line 1 during global destruction.

or

DESTROY created new reference to dead object ' Qt::SpacerItem', <> line 2 during global destruction.
