Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-wacom

I have a Wacom USB PenPartner tablet model CT-0405-U. I'm using Ubuntu
10.04, 64-bit, with xserver-xorg-input-wacom version 0.10.5-0ubuntu4.
I'm running inside of a VMware Player virtual machine.

In Ubuntu 10.04, only the eraser works. As soon as I plug it in, I can
move the cursor by using the eraser and I can click by pushing on the
eraser. Drawing using the pen does nothing -- the cursor doesn't move or
click or respond to anything.

In GIMP's Extended Input Devices configuration window, it only shows
"Wacom Penpartner" as the single tablet device available. Enabling it
causes the eraser's pressure sensitivity to work correctly.

Here is my output from xsetwacom:

$ xsetwacom --list --verbose
... Display is '(null)'.
... 'list' requested.
... Found device 'Virtual core XTEST pointer' (4).
... Found device 'Virtual core XTEST keyboard' (5).
... Found device 'Power Button' (6).
... Found device 'AT Translated Set 2 keyboard' (7).
... Found device 'ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse' (8).
... Found device 'Macintosh mouse button emulation' (9).
... Found device 'Wacom Penpartner' (10).
Wacom Penpartner ERASER 

(It only shows an eraser device)

This tablet does work on Ubuntu 9.10 (also under VMware). The eraser and pen can both move the cursor and they are both pressure sensitive when enabled in GIMP. In 9.10, GIMP shows these devices. (Can't seem to get xsetwacom to list anything in 9.10, so I'm going with the GIMP device list):
Wacom Penpartner eraser
Wacom Penpartner cursor
Wacom Penpartner pad
Wacom Penpartner

This is the device info from lsusb:

ID 056a:0000 Wacom Co., Ltd PenPartner

If you need any more info from me I would be happy to provide it. I
believe this bug is a dupe of #539048 which was closed with not enough
information. I can't figure out how to attach all my bug info to it from
the ubuntu-bug command, so I'm going ahead and creating a new one.
