What I would like is support in FreeBSD for the USB tablet, more precisely I'd like at least absolute positioning (opposed to relative positioning like a mouse) and working with the Gimp. I'm willing to sponsor a work in this direction, and I hope some of you will join in with the amount of money you feel like. The supported tablets should be at least the graphire 2. I put 100 EUR on the table for this. Anybody interested? thanks marco -- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me. -- Thomas Jefferson
