Hi O Plameras,
As you suggested below, I checked the config file and is showed
'CONFIG_USB_AIPTEK=m'. I then '#modprobe aiptek' as you suggested (now
bare with me as I'm new to this - well, 2 1/2 months new :)
So, the output from that was...well, nothing visible to me. What do I
do next? The tablet was active before, as I said, and is still - but
nothing else has changed. Is there a file I need to configure somewhere
to set the parameters?
Thanks,
Patrick

In your /boot directory check for a file that says
config-2.6.x
In this file, check if you have a line that says,
CONFIG_USB_AIPTEK=m
then your tablet driver is compiled as a module.
And you should be able to load it using
#modprobe aiptek
<SNIP>
I am using 2.6.9-rc3 and AIPTEK driver
included supports AIPTEK 6000U/8000U tablet.
If your tablet is of a different model you have
to find the driver for that; patch that driver into
your kernel; configure your kernel to activate;
and re-compile. Once done your tablet will
just work after re-starting you computer with
this new kernel.
As you know Sourceforge.net in the link you have shown
has driver support for
*Aiptek HyperPen 4000U*, *5000U*, *6000U*, *8000U*, and *12000U.

The patch is for 2.6.5.
