I have recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 and I am unable to get the

I'm sorry to say that I had to give up on this endless cycle when I
started a serious photography course (for which I now use an Intuos 4
with an iMac and the various industry standard post-processing software).
I can only suggest the usual approach: trawl through the recent stuff on
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=967147
which I notice started in November 2008 (!). I see that Favux - God
bless him; that man deserves a medal - is still toiling to repair
Ubuntu's Wacom software, this time after the breakages caused by the
11.04 upgrade.
He's a great bloke, and will reply to your posts on that thread most
helpfully. But do read and apply the relevant advice on the thread first.
Best wishes, as always.
