Sorry for asking a question, which might have been answered many times, 
but being a CTH-461 owner, I am a bit confused about which drivers to 
install...

I have currently installed linuxwacom 0.8.5-10 from source (0.8.5-11 has 
problems with touch), but since the development is so active on the 
bamboo devices at the moment I would like to tap into the newest 
drivers. However after having read the website and looking into the git 
repositories, it seems like the information on the website is outdated.

Can I use the linuxwacom 0.8.5-10 together with a git version of 
xf86-input-wacom, or do I need to install the special wacom-kernel to 
get the full benefit?
And is the linuxwacom driver package a thing of the past or will there 
be a new one?

Thanks,
Christian
