I figured it out for Ubuntu 9.10:

1) Install the WizardPen driver as shown at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TabletSetupWizardpen
I used the non-official repository mentioned there.

2) Create the fdi file as mentioned at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TabletSetupWizardpen#Downloading%20and%20installing%20the%20driver

Filename: /etc/hal/fdi/policy/99-x11-wizardpen.fdi
Content:

wizardpen
true

There may be other interesting option, but with this it works.

Hi there, I got a similar device, the Medion MD 85925, and would like to use it as a graphics tablet in Kubuntu 9.10.

Downloading and converting the top files works, and when it is connected via USB, the mouse moves over the screen according to how I move the pen over the tablet. But left and right click doesn’t work here, which makes it almost useless. Any idea how to solve this?

I thought about buying it, but I make manga drawings and they need to have pressure levels. So my question was wich one do you guys recommend for me besides the MD 85276 ? Or do you think it doesnt matter that much?

Help! I’m a 68 yrs old grandma and I saw the Medion graphic/drawing pad in Aldi’s yesterday. My 10 yr old grandson loves to draw. Is this a good purchase for him? Will he be able to work with it without constant supervision by dad–who is away on business 4 days out of 7. Thanks for your help.

Hi well I have just spent the last Hour + reading all the comments and have one question?
I am a writer and prefer to free hand everything and then type up, this is a long and arduous task so thought I will buy one of these pads.
Hard part is which one is best for hand writing to typed script, does any one have any idea but cant break the bank as not rich yet LOL
Also where could I test one of these,
Thanks for looking appreciate.
