Re: off topic - graphics tablets

I had a Genuis graphics tablet and it worked fine in linux (basically,
linux saw it as a mouse). I bought it for tracing though, and found it
to be quite useless because it didnt have a screen so I was constantly
trying to match up positions on the tablet with positions on my screen
and kept accidentally drawing where I didnt want to.

It was a $20 cheapie a few years ago though, so you might have a
better experience
