Re: Graphics Tablet

I've been looking at getting one myself for running some custome written
software and by all the reports the Wacom tablets are the most useful
under Linux, although they are pricey. The Wacom Volito 2 has some good
reviews, has been seen working under Linux (although what flabour i'm
unsure about) and at 28pound from amazon.co.uk is probably worth a shot.
The only problem is it's A6 so the owrking space is very small (clearly
not my ideal solution seeing i've got dual 19" monitors so i'm hoping to
get my bos to agree in principle to getting me an Intuos3 A5-wide(or even
A4-wide if I can find the money) tablet if all goes well with testing the
Volito. Other than buying one of these I think you will be lucky to find
anything with specific Linux support - strange I must say seeing that many
proffessional needs would be running Linux Software....

Hope that helps you a little...

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

Thanks
