[PD] Using pd with Wacom Intuos 2 in Linux

[Jerome Tuncer]

Thanks very much Christian!!

I managed to disable pointing with my Wacom.

I'm currently digging into Hans' [hid] object...

Seems it can give me x and y but pressure remains unseen...

Anyone managed to get it with a Wacom Intuos 2 tablet??
