Hello Peter, Yes, that will work. I'm the author of the driver and use it with a CTL-490DW-N (where -N probably means Dutch). It won't register pressure levels or proximity. I use the tablet as mouse replacement about 40 hours a week to prevent getting RSI. Two things of note though: 1. Unplugging while X is running results in the X log getting spammed (this happens with more devices, search tech@ for wacom). The fix is to restart X. 2. Once in a while the cursor jumps to the top left corner and back when you click something. This happens only a few times a day and doesn't cause me issues, but I want to fix it and haven't been able to so far. It seems the Linux driver just cuts of the lowest bit of the coordinates and I haven't figured out yet whether this will fix it or whether they use a different trick for it. Regards, Frank
