To understand the pressure curve settings in the wacom drivers:

If you have worked with Illustrator or Inkscape or some such vector
program, you will be familiar with the bezier curve tool. Now imagine
a 100x100 grid. Imagine a bezier curve going from the lower left
corner to the upper right corner of this grid. This is the pressure
curve of your wacom pen. The four values that you can set correspond
to the coordinates of the 'handles' of the bezier curve (the points
that you move around to modify a bezier curve. That is, (x1,y1,x2,y2),
corrpesponding to lower left and upper right handle coordinates,
respectively.

If you stil dont understand try to do the above in illustrator or
inkscape and you will see what i mean.
