This is my first post to the list. I have tried to search the list for
this answer but have come up empty.

I purchased an Intuos 3 6x8 for my gal to work on, followed your
excellent how-to and the one on the Ubuntu site. I also found and
installed expresskeys. Setting up was much less difficult than I
imagined it would be. I am using 0.7.2 on Dapper's 2.6.15-20-k7 #1 SMP
PREEMPT.

I didn't foresee the problem that there is distortion because this is a
wide-screen monitor. I have switched the pad to relative mode, but this
is not a great solution for an artist looking to draw anatomy. I read
the man page and came up with TopX etc. which looked promising, and I
tried setting TopX to 128 and BottomX to 1152, thinking that the "active
area" was on the screen, but it was actually a rather small area on the
pad instead.

I believe that I can set a portion of the pad inactive using TopX etc.
ad make the relative dimensions correct, but I'm not sure how to do
that. I could use some help in determining the full xy dimensions of the
pad so that I can make this happen.

If someone recognizes this as an idiotic idea with a better solution,
please let me know.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Daniel
