Well, I'm using a Graphire 2 tablet and it works fine.
See the following site how to install the drivers for Intuos:
http://sem.best.vwh.net/linux/wacom/
I'm using a self compiled kernel, but the stock kernel module should do as
well as I didn't modify anything.
However, the web page above says you need a modified version of the wacom
driver. I'm not sure about this...
Does the kernel or XFree86 give any error messages in the log?
Cheers
