Description

Some users would like the flexibility of having the kernel tablet driver available without resorting to uninstalling OpenTabletDriver or manually researching command line magic (e.g. modprobe -i wacom).
A wiki entry should help solve this.

Research direction

Document how users can keep the kernel tablet driver available without uninstalling OpenTabletDriver, including the mentioned modprobe -i wacom approach; the wiki entry is done when users no longer need to research the command themselves.
