FWIW, I have a Wacom CTF-420 tablet connected to my machine. Here is
the relevant 'usbdevs -v' output:
port 2 addr 2: low speed, power 40 mA, config 1, CTF-420 V2.0-0
(0x0062), WACOM(0x056a), rev 2.00
Moused detected this as ums0, and autmatically added it:
root@kg-work# ps ax | grep moused
550 ?? Is 0:00.98 /usr/sbin/moused -p /dev/ums0 -t auto
-I /var/run/moused.ums0.pid 1135 ?? Is 3:57.34 /usr/sbin/moused
-p /dev/psm0 -t auto
(the other is my standard ps2 mouse)
and it works fine as a mouse.

Sorry, can''t help you there. My xorg.conf is standard wrt mouse
configuration:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
EndSection
I guess I could have the tablet working as a real tablet if I had tried to find a better configuration for my xorg.conf.
