So in essence, someone is always complaining. :-P I know what you mean, but well -- ideally we want to converge on the correct behavior. Otherwise we'll just keep spinning and things stay broken. To my view, blacklisting a joystick which (wrongly) reports itself as a digitizer tablet is an improvement over creating broken joystick devices for anything that reports itself as a tablet. From that position we can fix the problem with the single device reporting the wrong device type and then everyone can be happy. -Tim
