Thinkpad x60 xorg.conf contains strange entries for Wacom InputDevice (Stylus)

[Littleiffel]

Hi after a fresh installation of ubuntu 6.06 my xorg.conf file looks strange and has three times the same entry for a Wacom InputDevice of type Stylus?? I post my xorg.conf file here

# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)

Do you have any tablets that aren't functioning properly?

Do you have a tablet at all?

[Caroline Ford (secretlondon)]

->Needs Info (Is this actually a bug?)

[Littleiffel (thierry-nicola)]

Actually, I do not have any tablet, and never have connected any such device to the Thinkpad.

[Littleiffel (thierry-nicola)]

What kind of info shall I provide??

[Manuel López-Ibáñez (manuellopezibanez)]

Thanks for your report.
A workaround may be to comment out the lines:

        InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
        InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
        InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"

in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
