FWIW, I've been using it for at least 2 years, wouldn't be surprised if it were 4 years, now without issue :) .

Libinput is done

Well I did the stupid thing: installed it, threw out old xorg.conf.d lines, and uninstalled all the other drivers all at once. It worked first time and the only change I can see is mouse acceleration, but that doesn't bother me.

Works fine with my normal tablet, but libinput-debug-events gives me interesting output for another one (USB ID 5543:0005):

libinput error: libinput bug: Device 'UC-LOGIC Tablet WP8060U Pen' does not meet tablet criteria. Ignoring this device.

IIRC this thing has shown no sign of life every other time I've tried to get it working, so even the fact libinput's trying is an improvement.
