[SOLUTION] Install kernel 2.6.34 or newer, or use kernel 2.6.32 or older. 2.6.33 seems to have problems with this pad.
I can't get this tablet to properly work. Here are the details:
Tablet: Wacom Graphire CTE-630BT (Wireless over BlueTooth).
Mandriva: 2010.1 Free 64 bits, all repositories configured.
Problem:
- I can only left and right click with the pan (stylus)
- I can not move the cursor
- No pressure is sensed
What happens:
- The Bluetooth adapter is recognized and working (generic BT adapter)
- gnome-bluetooth finds the divice
- HAL finds the device
- x11-driver-input-wacom is installed
- I can read/write parameters with xsetwacom from the console
- If I change something in 10-wacom.fdi and restart the device, lshal reflects the changes.
Relevant part from lshal:

Note: I can not see any information on the console when I use
xxd mouse2
or
xxd event5
(xxd works OK with my real mouse device and keyboard device.)
I would appreciate any help you can offer. I read tens of articles on all kind of forums and of course the official page ... I had no luck.
PS: modifying xorg.conf as described in a different place was also unsuccessful.
UPDATE
I installed by hand the latest drivers. Now, /dev/input/event5 and /dev/input/mouse2 receives data from the tablet, and I can see information going on when I touch and move the pen on the tablet.
I also can see now the tablet in the hardware list in Mandriva Linux's MCC
However, at linuxwacom.sourceforge.net, they say I can test xidump -u raw <devicename> to see what actions X forwards for the tablet. Here, I can see only Button Down and Button Up action ... no movement at all.
Also, X.org configuration seems to be ignored ... It is set up as described on the linuxwacom documentation, but with or without it, I have the same situation.
UPDATE (July the 30th 2010)
After further investigation, I found out that even if I compile the wacom kernel module from source and use the latest xf86-input-wacom (also compiled from source), I have a module callde hid_wacom installed by Mandriva which takes control of the pad. If I remove this, nothing works, not even the clicking with the pan.
I made this tests / combination of modules: [
root@localhost src]# rmmod hid_wacom
[root@localhost src]# lsmod | grep wacom
[root@localhost src]# modprobe wacom
[root@localhost src]# lsmod | grep wacom
