[Phill <1181166@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I hope I've done this right as it's taken ages.
Of the re-built kernels I narrowed it down to 3.16.3 which didn't work and 3.17-rc1 which worked.

Here's the git bisect log, good and bad being reversed as in the
instructions. The final commit has working buttons, however, on many of
the builds between 3.16 and 3.17-rc1 the desktop failed to show, but it
was still possible to test the buttons working. , On some the tablet
didn't work at all, but I just marked these as 'good' (meaning bad) and
continued. This is the case for the winning commit at the end.

Title:
  056a:00d6 [Asus V-P5G45] Bamboo Pen and Touch - Buttons not working
  and Touch Unusable

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Clean installation of Ubuntu 13.04 with latest updates. I'm sure that
  this all worked perfectly under 12.04 without any tweaks. I'm not sure
  which package this is in as the code is spread between kernel modules
  and an X11 driver.

  Using Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch, the buttons don't work and the touch
  motion is so excessive that it goes from edge-to-edge over about a
  third of the touch area. Note that touch motion is independent of
  settings for the pen, it is always relative in recent releases.

  Pointer movement is unpredictable with small movements producing both
  large 10+pixel step changes and small 5-pixel step changes for no
  apparent reason. Buttons work on the log-in page only.
