Bug Description

Binary package hint: emacs

I just updated my Emacs package (using adept) to the latest version (22.1.1)
and now I get these error messages when I run on emacs from a console:

Nothing to do with emacs.

This is due to the wacom sections in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. If you comment these out, and restart X, these errors go away. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=212025&page=2 for more info.

Changed in emacs22:
