Thanks for the heads up. I noticed that last night. Since it breaks
two-finger touch, we won't use it anyway.
My other patch is still necessary though. You'll need to change:
From: wacom <wacom@localhost.localdomain>
to
From: Ping Cheng <pingc@xxxxxxxxx>
I made it on a brand new system, which I didn't setup the environment
properly. I can update the patch if that's what you like...
