I have an old Bamboo Wacom tablet I got working properly by manually installing the drivers from the Linux Wacom Project. Everything worked beautifully after that, until I rebooted. Then the keyboard and mouse didn't work, only the tablet.

I managed to load the system using the accessibility keyboard with the tablet, and I ran sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-input-all to get back the mouse. An old backup wired keyboard also works, but not my wireless keyboard I was using before. And the tablet doesn't work at all now.

The only thing I did differently than the instructions for installing the Wacom drivers was with the xf86-input-wacom driver When I tried sudo -s 'apt-get update && apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-wacom', it didn't understand the command, so I split it in two, running sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-wacom and then sudo apt-get update.

I could really use both of these devices, the old wired keyboard is gigantic and crusty, with several sticky keys, and I was working on artwork we need with the tablet.

How should I proceed from here?
