What's the story on getting this thing working? I'm running Debian
Squeeze on an ASUS 1000HE. The device doesn't seem to be recognised as
anything it knows what to do about. It doesn't even seem to know it can
be a mouse.

Did not metion the model. I have a Bamboo Model MTE-450A
(note: mine is usb not serial connection)
The following is what I manualy had to add to
my xorg.conf file:

under this section "ServerLayout" add the following:

Section "ServerLayout"
InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "pad" # no core events
EndSection


then add the following sections:


Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "stylus"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom"
Option "Type" "stylus"
Option "USB" "on"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "eraser"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom"
Option "Type" "eraser"
Option "USB" "on"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "cursor"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom"
Option "Type" "cursor"
Option "USB" "on"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "pad"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom"
Option "Type" "pad"
Option "USB" "on"
EndSection


I hope this gives a starting point...

I'm not entirely sure what "version" of Debian you'd say I was running
- it's a bit a of a Heinz 57 (stable, *testing*, unstable, volatile,
experimental) - but that blog gave me enough pointers to get it working
here a number of months ago.
