[Bug 355021] Re: Unplugging USB tablet crashes xserver (Jaunty)

[Jon Nordby]

This bug is also present in Arch Linux current, with xf86-input-aiptek
1.2.0 and xorg-server 1.6.1. These packages are unpatched, so it is
almost certain that this is an upstream problem. There has not been any
commits to the aiptek driver git repo after 1.2.0

Some information I've gathered (likely not very useful, but included here just in case):
- The error seems to occur when the aiptek driver is removed: "rmmod aiptek" with the device plugged in produces this bug. When it is not connected, "modprobe aiptek && rmmod aiptek" works as expected; no crash.
- Removing the device is removed while hal is not running (in the middle of restarting hal for instance), it doesnt crash. Likely because the driver doesnt get removed.

I will produce a backtraces, dmesg and lsusb on a jaunty system shortly
and add them here.
