The only difference for me is that I have a AC40 controller, but that
shouldn't change anything in the setup. This has been a unsolved problem
for me for a long time, but I haven't had the time to dig deep into the
problem.Lars

Well, I have experienced this problem about a month ago. I thought it
was an error in my digitizer setup file and haven't really looked at it
since then. However, we use a *Summagraphics Microgrid III*. So, I
guess it's in the code.
