I have been using a Wacom Intuos CTL-490 (probably the cheapest Wacom available, around USD110 here) combined with JOSM and its FastDraw plugin for over a year now. All of this in Ubuntu(Gnome) 16.04.
They work great together, specially if you want to map forests, woods, reservoirs, riverbanks and any other large polygon. Take into consideration that you will have to tune the preferences of the FastDraw plugin to balance node density and shape quality. You do not want to make something with an excesive number of nodes but at the same time you want to take advantage of the level of detail that the pen alows you to get. Hope this helps you.
