xinput yields the following (irrelevant bits removed):



⎡ Virtual core pointer                          id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
...
⎜ ↳ Wacom Intuos Pro M Pen stylus id=15 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Intuos Pro M Pen eraser id=16 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Intuos Pro M Pen cursor id=17 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Intuos Pro M Pad pad id=18 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Intuos Pro M Finger touch id=19 [slave pointer (2)]
...


"Pen stylus" and "Pen eraser" are the pen input, "Pad" is the buttons on the tablet itself, and "Finger touch" is self-explanatory. But I can't figure out what "Pen cursor" is. Nothing registers when I test it with xinput test 17.
