Wacom Bamboo One

I received a Bamboo One cheap tablet previously. Never used tablets before, but heard that the Wacom tablets quality is very good, and they are usable under Linux.

Before searching it on the internet, I bravely attached the tablet to my computer immediately. Huhh, wondered, it started to work immediately! Without driver! Coool!
It works like a mouse, when the pen is above the tablet or just lightly touches it, it moves the cursor. If pressed to the tablet, it acts like a left mouse button. The lower button of the pen acts probably as the right mouse button, gives a menu. The top button? I did not think of it, probably another mouse button, or programmable.
Started to draw under Gimp, but first it worked just like the mouse, without sensitivity to the pressure. Then I found the Preferences/Input Devices/Configure Extended Input Devices, here one can modify all the tablet parameters in Gimp. Set the device to "Wacom Bamboo1", and the mode to "Screen". Check the screenshot below:

First it was hard to move the cursor without pressing on, always dropped lassos or moved icons. But after a short time I got used to it. The problem was that I used it as a mouse, but it has to be used just like if you draw with a real pencil, if you don't push, it wont leave trail. It's a pleasure to use this cheap tablet, works exactly just like a pencil.
