   Yep, and it says somewhere there that you should use the distro's files if   
   available its just there is not linuxwacom..   
      
   In any event if I try and use the sourceforge code knowing my luck it will   
   go tits and I would like to keep my system running if possible so I am   
   hoping someone has tried it.
