[DIGImend-users] Aiptek Media Tablet 14000u worked instantly (and almost complete) in linux 3.3.2

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hi, just wanted to report how my Aiptek Media Tablet 14000u worked
instantly (and almost complete) in a newly installed Fedora 17 (beta).

It worked just by plugin in. By default it uses the wacom driver,
which enables the stylus with pressure, but both stylus buttons are
configured to click (1) and the tablet scroll wheels are non
functioning. I couldn't configure the buttons for middle-click: it
painted instead when I held the button, and erased what had been
painted when released. Occasionally it would do a middle-click.

Following the evdev HOWTO instructions in the wiki, I created
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/52-tablet-on-evdev.conf and I now have buttons
configured and scroll wheels working.

I tried removing the wacom configuration, but then it didn't work in
Gimp (worked fine in inkscape though).

I do have a question, is there support for the Macros or function keys
of the tablet?

Here's some info in case it can be useful:
