Followup: The wacomcpl tool allows mapping the buttons and circular pad to GIMP events by making them look like key presses from the keyboard (it will also allow you to make them act like mouse buttons). Unfortunately wacomcpl isn't available for Fedora 10, so you have to build it manually from the wacom source distribution. For other googlers of this thread: grab tk-devel and tcl-devel to build this tool, and you don't really care if anything else gets built. The current X.org and kernel drivers seem to work fine in F10. So the Bamboo works fine now under GIMP. But I'm still curious as to the purpose of the Axes and Keys tabs in the Configure Input Devices dialog. Does anyone know what those are supposed to be used for? -- Michael J.
