You have some devices setup in your xorg.conf file that are not real.

Eliminate the wacom tablet, etc. devices

Take out the Sections for the Wacom Erasor, Cursor, and stylus in 
the "inputDevice" section.

Then in the "Serverlayout" Section near the bottom erase the following three 
lines:

	InputDevice     "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
	InputDevice     "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
	InputDevice     "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"

Put the "SendCoreEvents" part after your primary mouse pointer definition if 
you want or need it.

Then Restart X and you will not get those error messages.
