The current X.org configuration does not create /etc/X11/xorg.conf by default, but it prefers to have the snippets in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d instead. The wacom utility (namely /usr/share/wacom-utility/wacom_xorg.py) tries parse non-existing xorg.conf, to back it up (fails), and installs a new xorg.conf. The trouble is that it has only two lines: Section "ServerLayout" EndSection And starting GDM fails after reboot! I assume that after installing the package xf86-input-wacom (which creates also xorg configuration file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-wacom.conf), it is not necessary that wacom-utility touches /etc/X11/xorg.conf at all. It is still usefull, since it creates $HOME/.wacom_utility, which is run on startup.
