This program is freeware and comes without any warranty.
If you want to put this program on a cd / coverdisk I want a copy.

Note: 
From the beosreadylist supported 
USB Controllers and Peripherals: 
                UHCI-based controllers (Intel PIIX4 and Via chipsets) 

This means that certain USB controllers are not (yet) supported by Be. So if you don't see 
any entries in /dev/bus/usb/ you are out of luck.
 To check: open a terminal window (applications / Terminal) and type behind the $ prompt 
ls -R /dev/bus/usb/

This version:

Works with wacom usb tablets connected on port /dev/bus/usb/*/*/*
where * is 0 to 2 or 9. 

How to install:

1)  Remove old versions of penpartner_usb, graphire_usb or intuos_usb
	from the devices dir.

2)  Move / copy the wacom_usb add-on to the 
	/boot/home/config/add-ons/input_server/devices/
	directory (a link is provided)

3)  Restart the input_server (click on the restart input_server script)

4) Since the tablet is still being picked up by the mouse server
	(you'll see the pointer jumping around the screen)
	You'll have to kill the "USB Mouse 1" task.

	I think I know how to fix this but it will take some time...

5)  In the mean time you can put the line: 
	kill "USB Mouse 1" 
	in the UserBootscript.

	You can find the UserBootscript in /boot/home/config/boot
	or else edit the UserBootscript.sample file and save it as UserBootscript

	#example UserBootscript
	#
	Workspaces &
	kill "USB Mouse 1"
	datum &
	

Known bugs:
-the need to kill the mouse task.
 if you have a real USB Mouse then you might need to edit the
 scripts to kill "USB Mouse 2" or something like that.
check with from Terminal with
$ ps | grep USB
