There are reasons that the wacom code at kernel.org doesn't support
Bamboo yet (I am not going to explain this part). However, the kernel
code that is included in the linuxwacom release package does support
Bamboo. The latest version, 0.8.8-8 posted at linuxwacom.sf.net,
supports kernels up to date.
To be sure, I got the latest linux-2.6 and the 0.8.8-8 on an "X.Org X
Server 1.7.6" system:
./configure --enable-wacom --with-kernel=/home/pingc/linux-2.6
The wacom.ko is built without issuing a "make":

You are running a newer version.
Please build the X driver from xf86-input-wacom.

I only have a F12 to test with:
[pi...@localhost linuxwacom-0.8.8-8]$ uname -r
2.6.32.16-150.fc12.i686
So, I can not really say why 2.6.33 doesn't compile.

It sounds like a Fedora 13 feature for me :).
