Chris,

I used a serial aiptek tablet with linux 2.4.x and the hyperpen X
windows driver successfully. Using linux 2.6.x, the tablet no longer
provides any pressure sensitivity - not even as far as a button press.
I've not bothered to find out why this is, because I don't really need
the tablet. However, beware that it's just possible that the hyperpen X
driver won't play with Linux 2.6.
