Thanks for the information.

For technical reasons I haven't been able to use my tablet for a long
time, and the last time I tried it just didn't work.
With the current releases of Xorg / LinuxWacom / Gimp everything seems
to work fine.

Thanks again,

 This is a logical (?) follow up on Sam Stern's question for Windows.
 Is there a good (prefarably large) tablet to use with Linux that provides 
 most 
 if not all functionalities? (Eraser/pressure etc.)

The Wacom Intuos tablets provide all you want, and in fact more, since
tilt is not recognized by most software products. They come from A6 to
A3 wide, and are very well handled with GNU/Linux, thanks to the
Linuxwacom project. See

   http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/

and the corresponding discussion list.

Is that also true for the older (serial) versions? If so, how to
enable this?

I have no experience with a serial tablet, but the linuxwacom project
deals with it too.

Serial tablets were even easier to setup than USB have been for some
time as there was less software wanting to take part compared to what
happens now (no serial level driver required while usb does, and no
udev like is typical now), and they worked for all basic features.
Single one I remember not getting was the top buttons (16
programable areas in top edge and two to change pressure response)
which probably were just implemented at the driver level. But
pressure, tilt and so on, pretty good.

OTOH, I remember having some issues with NT driver, and Wacom's reply
was that it had to be that way (it was long time ago, sorry for the
lack of details... I remember placing it with the why do I have to
reboot for this issues tho), no idea if it changed with 2000, etc as
that tablet has been Linux only since.
