Tablets and X11

Is there any way to get my tablet to work with X11 so I can have pressure input in GIMP and Inkscape?

Hi!,
Yes!

If you are running a debian based distro try looking in the apt repository for WACOM… you will need to get the kernel sources first.

thats it…

BTW i am useing KANOTIX linux… it is debian based like ubuntu, just much easyer to install and maintain.
