Running GIMP 2.6.10 on Windows XP system. 

For a long time, my GIMP has had trouble detecting my Wacom Intuos3 tablet upon startup, with the result that GIMP would not respond to the tablet pen whatsoever (i.e: no extended input devices found).  I generally could work around this by starting GIMP's program shortcut using the tablet pen instead of my mouse, but that ceased to work as of about yesterday.

So earlier today I updated my Wacom tablet driver to the latest available version -- tablet pen is back to ordinary working order again!  Except now I have a NEW problem:  GIMP won't acknowledge the mouse pointer anymore.

I can use the mouse to navigate window and interface elements, but absolutely nothing happens when I try to operate my mouse inside the main image area.  I can't draw, select, or even zoom the window at all -- as far as GIMP is concerned, the main mouse doesn't exist.

This is extremely annoying, as while I do want to use my tablet in GIMP, I'm not going to be using it all the time (and being left-handed I prefer to do some functions by mouse, particularly scrolling/zooming, anyway).

What do I look for to address this issue?
