We just got our Wacom :-)

Sticky family #1

Sticky family #1

We just got our first tabletWacom Bamboo.
It works very well – on Ubuntu/Linux and on Windows 7 :-) .
Above: the first very quick ‘creation’ in Gimp
I hope to make more and post them here.
Enjoy!

EDIT: This is a simple and small Wacom Bamboo A6 – but I simply love it :)

It’s working on Linux/Ubuntu right of the box. To make it even more usable I followed the instructions on Ubuntu Community Documentation page here

If you want to play with it in GIMP you have to go to: Preferences->Input devices->Configure Extended input devices.

In the list you should be able to pick the various devices — they are called

“stylus” (tip of your pen)

“eraser” (back tip of your pen)

“cursor” (the wacom mouse if you have it)

“pad” (the buttons/slider on some tablets — not all versions have them).

“puck” (not sure what heck this is, but some Windows users have reported seeing such a device name.)

Activate all devices (except the “pad”) to mode “Screen”, which seems to work best for most people. If you find that your cursor has a strange offset, try is to switch to the the “Windows” setting instead, your mileage may vary. Always leave “pad” disabled in the GIMP prefs, GIMP’s not using it anyway and turning it on will only mess things up.
