Lion and my Wacom tablet

Image from psychology4a.com

Last week, i catch up with the newest release mac os “Lion”. I am happy with most of the new features. But i have a really annoying problem.

I am using a wacom tablet as my mouse replacement. I found that the scrollbar will auto hide when there is no interaction. The problem is they will no appear again even if i have a “mouse move”. I deal with it to install the driver and install it to another computer. Lastly, i found that, the scroll bar will be hidden if there no a mouse connected.

Now, i just can wait for a new driver or wait for apple fixing it.
