My question is: will it always be /dev/input/event6 ?
HTH others with wacom although I think that Yast ought to be able to configure it properly to begin with.

I had my wacom working under 10.2, and never noticed it changed form event3 to anything else (I used the linuxwacom driver, does this mean 11.0 can do a wacom properly without an external driver?). However I never pulled my mouse or my wacom. If you wanna be sure, just pull the wacom, insert a mouse, re-insert the wacom and try if it works (you shouldn't do it if your're afraid of rebooting, it may crash although very probably not)
Since the people @ linuxwacom use this way I think it probaly will not change, and if it does it may not be solvable.

To be sure and after a lot of digging I created a udev rule:
KERNEL=="event*", SYSFS{idVendor}=="056a", NAME="input/%k", SYMLINK="input/wacom"
and used /dev/input/wacom instead of /dev/input/event6
I used yast to set it up and never compiled anything from what looks a tricky installation process on linuxwacom. The only thing it got wrong was the /dev/input/event* bit. Still enough to make endless hours of searching though! L x

cool solution! Have to remember this one for when I have time to use may wacom (and thus have the need and time to reinstal it) -- There are two kinds of people: 1.
