Then ubuntu finally recognized the wacom tablet but got the same problem you are getting.
I found that if I removed Compiz ( sudo apt-get remove compiz, sudo apt-get remove compiz-core )and reboot, the tablet works just fine in gimp.
Im kind of new to Linux and dont know what exactly does Compiz do. I have been working one day and havent noticed a difference since I removed it ( just a grey background when im logging in for a cople of seconds ) Everything else seems fine. Im using this as a temporary solution to my problem.
Can somebody explain what problems can I possible get because of this solution?
