I'm running El Capitan 10.11.3, and have been with basically zero issues for a few months now.

I recently purchased a Monoprice 10x6.25 inch graphic drawing tablet (the one with the 8 hot keys on the left side), and I've had some strange issues with it. I realize after doing a little research that the driver support for this tablet is understandably shit (the thing costs 40 bucks, what do you expect?), but many people have managed to get it to work fine on what I assume are standard Macs.

I have what I believe is the latest driver (via uc-logic.com support) but I still have problems, namely:

-when I lift the pen out of range of the tablet, it automatically right clicks, but only when I lift it slowly, if I whip the pen away from the surface, it doesn't do it.

-Occasionally, the cursor appears to hit a barrier in the middle of the screen/tablet surface (I have the tablet set to mirror the layout of the screen) and gets stuck along this invisible fence until I lift the pen away from the surface and "reset" it (along with an unwanted right click, hah).

-General glitchy, skippy performance.

I can't really tell if it's an OS X/Hackintosh thing, an actual software thing (Photoshop tends to play a little nicer than Corel Painter, for example), or if the tablet itself is faulty. Anyone have any experience with this?
