Yes I've been there and tried that. The bamboo pad and sylis has
features that does not yet work in Ubuntu. They are still working on it
and i would think they would have it all working before too long. I
wanted the stylus to work in Gimp but there was not some of th painting
and retouching options I needed. Presently I am editing pictures for
video there and then taking them to Painter in xp and that works well.
The video I am doing has both Pictures and vidio in it so I am editing
and building it in Cinelerra. I expect to be working on this until this
time next year. I really don't want to work with something that does
not quit work yet. I will switch when the guys on wacom list tell me
it's all up and running.
