Comment 25 for bug 358643

ujean: the following is simpler than the method i mentioned above (no need to build anything, as mentioned by chris in his post):

1. purge/reinstall wacom-tools:

sudo apt-get purge wacom-tools xserver-xorg-input-wacom
sudo apt-get install wacom-tools xserver-xorg-input-wacom

2. download timo's xorg-core:

http://ppa.launchpad.net/tjaalton/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xorg-server/xserver-xorg-core_1.6.0-0ubuntu11.1_i386.deb

to your home folder and install:

sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-core_1.6.0-0ubuntu11.1_i386.deb

use my xorg.conf provided above.

after restart everything should be working almost perfectly, you might want to pin timo's package until the official versions are corrected.

i attached a desktop/menu entry above for the rotate, but forgot the script to go with it, here it is too:
