Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
After changing the X.org config to use /dev/input/event rather than /dev/wacom (which is NOT present in the LiveCD), I found it is fairly hard to get the pointer to the side of the screen or below the last quarter.
I have to make some broad swishes, moving the pen quite fast to do it.. if I drag the pen slowly (it is in Absolute mode for sure), there seems to be a restrictive bounding box.
This is on a correctly detected Wacom Graphire 3 "6x8" connected via USB.

Same problem on an out-of-the-box Ubuntu 6.06 64-bit. Wacom tablet is CTF-420.
Occasionally the cursor can be moved around the whole screen. But often it cannot reach the top and/or left side of the screen. The movement ends at about 90% of the whole screen (but this is not always the location). Rarely it cannot reach the right side either, but just by a few millimeter.
