Yes, I went through that. You clearly haven't got the module installed. Just before we give up, try adding 'wacom' (without the quotes) to the end of the etc/modules: gksudo gedit /etc/modules and reboot. This will make sure the module, if installed, is being loaded at boot. > Fortunately, all this is happening on a machine which I am using as > part of my digital photographic set-up, so I can fiddle to a certain > extent. Perhaps it would be best to scrap 9.04 and use 8.10 or 8.04 > instead what do you think? All I can say is that I tried on 9.04 for ages, to no avail. I don't say it can't be done; but I couldn't do it. So I'm using 8.04 (with the linuxwacom 0.8.3-4 driver, which is the right one for the Intuos4; but you may need the 0.8.2.2 driver - please check which is right for the Bamboo, as I don't know.) The 8.04 seems to work better with the wacom drivers. You know I commiserate with you about this hassle.
