I've just spent a frustrating and fruitless two whole days trying to get my new Wacom Intuos4 graphics tablet working in Ubuntu. I've tried with Hardy and Jaunty. I've pored over the long, intricate, tangled and opaque threads on the forums; I've googled to distraction; I've done the wiki to death (and got sick of its telling me that 'your Wacom tablet should now just work with Jaunty' - aaarrrggh! And launchpad is full of unresolved issues.)
I bought the Intuos4 because I watched - with my own eye's - Rolf Steinort using it with GIMP (http://meetthegimp.org/episode-101-tablets/) In Hardy, lsusb shows the wacom as present; I think (??) there's a driver installed; the xorg.conf file sets up the wacom according to the Xorg.0.log; but the /dev/input/wacom that xorg.conf calls does not exist. If any of you good folk have actually got a Wacom Intuos4 working with Ubuntu, I would dearly love to hear how you did it, before I turn mine into the most expensive rectangular frisby you've ever seen!
