Strange behaviour

On a freshly installed 6.06 Kubuntu:
When I start a graphical app from the konsole, I get the following error
messages in the console before the prog starts:
X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166
Major opcode: 144
Minor opcode: 3
Resource id: 0x0
Failed to open device
X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166
Major opcode: 144
Minor opcode: 3
Resource id: 0x0
Failed to open device
I had a look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf where I was surprised to fid the following,
given I have a bog-standard keyboard and (serial) mouse, but nothing like
those:
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "stylus"
option "Device" "/dev/wacom"# Change to
option "Type" "stylus"
option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY
# /dev/input/event
# for USB
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "eraser"
option "Device" "/dev/wacom"# Change to
option "Type" "eraser"
option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY
# /dev/input/event
# for USB
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "cursor"
option "Device" "/dev/wacom"# Change to
option "Type" "cursor"
option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY
# /dev/input/event
# for USB
EndSection
Would these devices be the cause of the error messages I am getting ?
Can I remove those entries, or is there a risk of finding myself without X11 ?
TIA,
Ron.
