The above file appears, aiptek.ko in Fedora. But you have Mandrake.
In your /boot directory check for a file that says config-2.6.x
In this file, check if you have a line that says,
CONFIG_USB_AIPTEK=m
then your tablet driver is compiled as a module. And you should be able to load it using
#modprobe aiptek
If it says CONFIG_USB_AIPTEK=y then it is compiled into the kernel and there is no need to load it.
If it says #CONFIG_USB_AIPTEK is not set then it is not part of the kernel at all and you have to re-compile your kernel after setting it to *CONFIG_USB_AIPTEK=m** * I am using 2.6.9-rc3 and AIPTEK driver included supports AIPTEK 6000U/8000U tablet.
If your tablet is of a different model you have to find the driver for that; patch that driver into your kernel; configure your kernel to activate; and re-compile. Once done your tablet will just work after re-starting you computer with this new kernel.
As you know Sourceforge.net in the link you have shown has driver support for
*Aiptek HyperPen 4000U*, *5000U*, *6000U*, *8000U*, and *12000U. * The patch is for 2.6.5.
