Thanks for your replies (and to Sven for his patience - Evolution is doing what I tell it to do, not what I expect it to do - sorry!). It's quite possible that it's a driver issue - and the Aiptek driver is based in part on the Wacom driver, although I suspect the code has diverged now. Thing is, I'm pretty sure that the device is sending events through with a consistent device id. I've been looking into the source to try to work out how the device gets identified from its point of view. I've traced it through X into Gdk into Gtk (I think), but it's slow going. Any pointers?
