Getting Wacom drawing tablets to work in Linux
November 8, 2007 in Design, Drawing, Foto, Linux, Photo editing, Photography
I got a Wacom tablet for my birthday. It’s ideal for making drawings with my PC. It’s easy to setup and I get good results from what I do. Off course I am no artist so it’s nothing fancy. It’s much easier to use a tablet than to draw or retouch with the mouse.
I have gotten the tablet to work in Windows and on my Mac, but I have had trouble getting it to work well in Linux. The problem is that the drawing area on the tablet is only a small portion of the drawing in my preferred applications. The GIMP and Inkscape. I haven’t found any solutions for the problem until I read this article in Linux.com. Now it seems to be a way for me to use Linux also for drawing and retouching.
Here is one of the drawings I have made with my tablet.
