By default, it somewhat works as a mouse. I can move and click. There is not pressure sensitivity, and programs like The GIMP don't see it as an extended input device. Also, the scale is off, so positioning is "not quite absolute." > Regular linux-wacom drivers do not work, and neither do Aiptek drivers. That means, however, that the usbhid driver understands the tablet, it only has a problem presenting it to userspace. Can you try whether using 'evtest /dev/input/event#', where # is the number corresponding to your tablet gives all the needed information (absolute position, pressure) in its output? -- Vojtech Pavlik Director SuSE Labs ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
