hi,

since i am root, i don't it's a permission thing. here's the answer from 
ping (from wacom-tools):

Once wacom_drv.so grabs the tablet, nothing else can access it.  You can 
run wacdump before X starts.  Or run xidump before wacomcpl starts.

what i did to have pressure, x, y in pure data and gimp at the same time:

|in gimp (gimpdisplayshell-coords.c)
printf("%f %f %f;\n", coords->x, ||coords->y|, |coords->pressure||);
fflush(stdout); //important!|

at console:
gimp-2.6 | pdsend 3001 127.0.0.1 udp
