i've asked this before, but here's more data, so perhaps some can
explain what's going on!
when the wacom driver is in use, the external mouse is ignored. if the
driver isn't in the server layout, the external mouse works just fine.
i have tried every permutation involving all the "Core" options, i.e.,
"CorePointer", "SendCoreEvents", and "AlwaysCore". (perhaps someone
could provide a pointer to something that concisely explains how to use
these properly.)
% xsetpointer -l
"stylus" [XExtensionDevice]
"IntelliMouse Explorer" [XPointer]
"keyboard" [XKeyboard]
% xidump -l # utility program from linuxwacom
stylus extension
IntelliMouse Explorer disabled
keyboard keyboard
so, the question is:
why is the external mouse considered "disabled" by XInput?
