I can confirm this on an Acer Travelmate C200. The stylus worked very well out-of-the box on Feisty and the Gutsy Tribes (LiveCDs and installed systems). But with the new Gutsy Beta it neither works with the LiveCD nor with the installed system. The reason are the following commented lines in xorg.conf:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
screen "Default Screen"
Inputdevice "Generic Keyboard"
Inputdevice "Configured Mouse"
# Uncomment if you have a wacom tablet
# InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
# InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
# InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"
Inputdevice "Synaptics Touchpad"
EndSection
When you uncomment them it works again.
I think if a wacom device is recognized during installation, it should be automatically adjusted so that it works out-of-the-box again, as it did before.
