X crashes when wacom USB tablet is unplugged

[Christian Schürer-Waldheim]

Binary package hint: xorg

When I plug in my wacom bamboo (usb) then it is recognized automatically by the X server. If I unplug it again, the X server crashes - see log below.

I'm using Ubuntu intrepid 8.10, latest packages installed

Log output:

Yep, confirmed. There's a new development version available upstream which should be tested.
