Bug Description

In the current development version Vivid Vervet, the Wacom panel applet in Unity Control Center no longer detects my Intuos4. Works fine in Utopic Unicorn. In Vivid I can do terminal commands that show the Wacom tablet being there:-

lsusb | grep Wacom

xinput list

lsmod | grep wacom

Installing Ubuntu Gnome (Vivid) and using Gnome Control Center also fails to detect my Wacom Intuos 4 tablet.

This may be tied to later kernel versions. Upgrading only the kernel to 3.18 or 3.19 major versions reproduces the problem for me.

I have the same problem with Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS.

With the kernel 3.13, the tablets are detected properly, but with the 4.4 update, no tablets are detected.
I uses scripts with xsetwacom to use my tablet without this, but it's problematic for beginner users...

Thank you !
