Re: [Linuxwacom-discuss] Which Wacom device to buy?

[Ping <pin...@gm...>]

Hi Petr,

I think MTE (Wacom Bamboo A6 (MTE-450/K-FR, MTE-450/K-IT)) are
supported. But I am only familiar with the product IDs (0x17, 0x18,
0x19, etc) not the model numbers (I can check the details for you
tomorrow if you need a definite answer). The Bamboos with touch
feature are not supported and they will not be supported soon.

There is no localization associated with the hardware. The K-FR and
K-IT you see are the languages used for the User's Guide (I guess).
This project only supports English as you can tell :).
