i may trying a fresh install tuesday with the newest (monday DVD) distro.
what i should to is then
1. install ubuntu 7.04 fresh
2. load aaltonen's package (with synaptic?)
--
is that all?
then the wacom in my tablett should be recognized?

it would be wonderful if this problem would go away?

(does timo's package include support for rotating the screen and wacom
together?)
