Hi,
Does any one know of an economic graphics tablet that works with
Linux?
I am running OpenSuse 10.2

Thanks

I got a cheap Trust TB-2100 tablet in Morrisons (impulse purchase). It
functions OK as a mouse under SuSE 10.2 but pressure sensitivity is not
supported. It may be possible to get that working with some third-party
software but I haven't persisted.

I briefly tested it under Windows where the pressure sensitivity does work
(though not with the Windows version of GIMP) but I'd probably turn it off
anyway as the results were like writing with a blotty fountain pen.

My guess - this is typical of cheap tablets but I'm still reasonably
satisfied with my purchase.
