/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/input/tablet/
depmod -e

reboot

it should work

what did not work for me is the following (look at mails before this one
from Marcel deJong )

If you also want to enable the ring and buttons add this too
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "cursor"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom"
Option "Type" "pad"
Option "USB" "on"
EndSection

and add a
InputDevice "pad" "SendCoreEvents"
to that lower section.

if it worked :

After all that, and a reboot, you should be able to use your wacom tablet.
And you can set the actions for the buttons with instructions like these:
xsetwacom set pad AbsWUp 4 #scroll up
xsetwacom set pad AbsWDn 5 #scroll down
xsetwacom set pad button3 4 #< key: scroll up
xsetwacom set pad button1 5 #> key: scroll dn
xsetwacom set pad button2 1 #FN1 key: left mouse button
xsetwacom set pad button4 3 #FN2 key: right mouse button

Please before you do any altering to your xorg,conf file, first make a
backup!

Hi,

small problem of copy and paste in the text

read

apt-get install build-essential x11proto-core-dev libxau-dev
libxdmcp-dev x11proto-input-dev x11proto-kb-dev xtrans-dev libx11-dev
x11proto-xext-dev libxext-dev libxi-dev linux-libc-dev libc6-dev
libncurses5-dev xserver-xorg-dev libice-dev libsm-dev
libxt-dev tcl8.4-dev tk8.4-dev

instead of

apt-get install build-essential x11proto-core-dev libxau-dev
libxdmcp-dev x11proto-input-dev x11proto-kb-dev xtrans-dev libx11-dev
x11proto-xext-dev libxext-dev libxi-dev linux-libc-dev libc6-dev
libncurses5-dev xserver-xorg-dev

and read

cp xserver-xorg-input-wacom.udev
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-xserver-xorg-input-wacom.rules

instead of

cp xserver-xorg-input-wacom.udev
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-xserver-xorg-input-wacom.rules libice-dev libsm-dev
libxt-dev tcl8.4-dev tk8.4-dev
