Even though Ubuntu's Wacom setting detects my Wacom Bamboo pad the stylus barely works, and it acts more like a barely functioning mouse than a digital pen. I can only draw faint straight lines after it lags. I'm using the gnome Xorg build as many users suggested in similar situations but the results are the same. It works on the Unity build but Ubuntu freezes ten minutes after I log in so that's not an option anymore.
Even the Xinput list detects the stylus:
themadbaron@themadbaron-desktop:~$ xinput --list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Wireless Bamboo PAD Pen stylus id=8 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Wireless Bamboo PAD Finger touch id=9 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ USB Keyboard id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Wireless Bamboo PAD Pen eraser id=16 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech USB Receiver id=12 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech USB Receiver id=14 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]

But no luck
