Some of those are not even mentioned in the wacom(4x) manpage. Maybe those are a cause of your problem? You can only have one "CorePointer", but you can use the AlwaysCore option for the other ones. Not that if you do _not_ make them corepointer, you get some nice support in gimp (but also as corepointer). Do not use /dev/input/mice while using the wacom or all events from wacom input will appear twice.

Wacom Graphire 3 (usb) under Debian Sarge
Hi List, recently, I got a nice Wacom Graphire 3 (usb) graphic table. As far as I know, the driver for this device is already integrated in the Debian Kernel.I adapted my XF86-Config-4 after having read quite a few pages on the internet. However, it is still not possible to *work* with the graphic table: the cursor is jumping (or a jumping white border is visible) around when I hold the stylus pen still on the table! Also, klicking on the menue buttons will not work properly. Besides, my USB-mouse is attached to the PS2-port with an adapter. Any ideas to solve this?

How to get Wacom Graphire working in X?
I've recently purchased a Wacom Graphire (USB drawing tablet), and have been trying for some time to get it working in X -- I'm using kernel 2.4.0-test9, so the kernel seems to recognize the tablet (the light on the tablet itself comes on) but haven't been able to use the tablet for control in X, having to fall back on my old PS/2 Intellimouse. Can anyone help me to (at least) get started on getting this tablet working in X? Thanks, Brian Dunnette pgpuiU3QIssOH.pgp Description: PGP signature

Did anyone reply to this? Anyway, yes, they work. Probably the serial version is a bit safer than the USB, but the USB version can also be got to work. The issue is that you needs a kernel which supports USB (a 2.2 kernel with the backport, say), and the USB XFree86 driver is less mature than the serial Wacom driver, so you can expect a few problems (there's a known staircase effect in the code that does smoothing, for example). The wheel on the mouse works as you'd expect, so for £75 or so, you get a cordless wheeled mouse together with a decent pen.
Wacom Graphire?
Has anyone used the Wacom Graphire tablet successfully? It would be a slick addition to Corel's PhotoPaint. I noticed there's a serial/PS2 connection available as well as the more common USB stuff. Does that make a difference (presuming, of course, that USB support is available)? Thanks all.
