Maybe, but I'm no X.org driver expert. I'm happy that I managed to get 
this driver to work again without crashing all the time ;-)

For me, it seems like two input sections in xorg.conf result in two 
instances of the driver, right? If so, then this would be pretty bad for 
the hyperpen tablet, as it is a serial device. The driver directly 
communicates to the serial port. There is no global instance (kernel 
module, ...) where multiple driver instances can connect to.

I think hardcoded mode is a useful feature, but I'm still unsure how the 
right option name would be. The "Aiptek" driver also has both (Cursor 
and Mode), but I think they support two "input sections" in xorg.conf, 
which can't work with the hyperpen driver.

Yours
