Its USB, I also have a USB mouse that functions correctly. When I really
need to use my wacom I've setup multi kernel boot which allows me to boot
to kernel 2.4.22 in which my wacom functions properly. Again only
difference between the two is under 2.4.22 I have a physical version of
the mousedev module.
