Actually, I do need to revisit that. The Numonics tablet does appear
to have a Summagraphics emulation mode but my recollection was that it's
a different protocol to the one that the summa driver apparently supports
(Summagraphics having used a few different protocols over the years).

My main problem there was in finding *any* documentation for the summa
driver, though - it's apparently not like the Wacom one which has its own
dedicated site! I'd got the impression from usenet posts that the
driver's *possibly* integrated into the very latest x.org release, but I
couldn't find any docs to confirm that for sure, let alone any online info
on how to set up the driver (I'm on Xorg 3.8.1 here, which certainly
doesn't seem to include support)
