Acceleration tends to occur whenever another driver is trying to read
wacom's inputs and interpreting them as relative. Make sure you aren't
using any drivers with /dev/input/mice, because IIRC that will include
linuxwacom inputs. Also, after modprobing wacom, you /do/ need to
restart X (just making sure you know). If you rmmod it and then
re-insmod it, the same applies.

See my previous comment about /dev/input/mice (/dev/psaux is another
culprit, an even worse one. If you have that, it WILL cause problems
:P)

If you change those identifiers to the ones I use, wacomcpl should be
able to calibrate them fine. Let me know how it turns out for you.
