Originally reported downstream: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=779779 *** fter the system boots up, i get a error message stated as "Some error has occurred, please contact your administrator" before the gdm starts. But still the login box showup and error message also present behind it. Login works well but the error msg is still there and the only option shown is logout. I checked the :0-greeter.log and found an error recorded there. wacom-plugin:ERROR:gsd-wacom-device.c:1491:gsd_wacom_device_set_current_stylus: assertion failed: (device->priv->styli) I have a wacom device in my laptop. On seeing the above error, i removed the xf86-input-wacom package in zypper and after that the problem solved but i am not able to configure the device in gnome-control-center(it says no device found) but the device (stylus) works good. ***
Based on g-s-d 3.4.2
Which version of libwacom? Make sure it's the latest upstream version (0.6).
That is actually indeed with libwacom 0.5; which per configure check (even of 3.5.91) is 'sufficient'. (configure.ac of 3.5.91 has LIBWACOM_REQUIRED_VERSION=0.5). I'll see if I can prepare a 0.6 package for the user to test. You'll hear back soon.
In this case it would be a duplicated of bug 672917 I attached a patch in bug 672917 to make libwacom 0.6 the minimum required version.

Indeed... the user confirmed that libwacom 0.6 solved the issues for him (no means to test for me; don't have any wacom devices). marking this bug, as suggested, as duplicate *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 672917 ***
