I just bought a Wacom Graphire4.  This is what my (fairly GENERIC) NetBSD 3.1
kernel gives:

uhidev1 at uhub0 port 1 configuration 1 interface 0
uhidev1: WACOM CTE-440-U V4.0-3, rev 1.10/4.03, addr 3, iclass 3/1
uhidev1: 3 report ids
ums1 at uhidev1 reportid 1: 3 buttons and Z dir.
wsmouse1 at ums1 mux 0
uhid0 at uhidev1 reportid 2: input=7, output=0, feature=1
uhid1 at uhidev1 reportid 3: input=0, output=0, feature=1

As a mouse, it works out of the box (with three buttons).  However the scroll
wheel and extra buttons on the tablet don't work.  hexdump on /dev/uhid0 and
/dev/uhid1 doesn't show anything, whatever I do.

Maybe I need your patch, but mine is a Graphire4.  Could I please see your
dmesg with and without your patch applied?

My XFree86 doesn't have the usbtablet driver installed (although the sources
are in xsrc/), but it has a wacom driver.  Is it the same?
