Frankly, I do not know if they are free. But as nobody pays me to play with QEmu, I do not care about Windows so much. And the Wacom drivers for Linux are free. BTW I prefer a virtual wacom tablet to Summagraphics, since kudzu (the hardware detection which is used in Knoppix) can detect it.

I have some documentation somewhere, I just had a look, and only found the Summagraphics documentation.

IIRC, it has an integrated LCD display. So, I assume absolute positioning is automatically switched on with that tablet. > The mouse sync solution we have in Win4Lin Pro is okay, but it's a bit > slow and I'd like to do something much cleaner.
