Kcm_wacomtablet > Adds tablet configuration in System Settings for KDE This not always the case and I have found with Fedora. With Linux it is much easier as usually the OS will detect and load the drivers.

The steps described here will work no matter what OS you are running Gimp or Inkscape on.įirst step is to make sure the tablet is recognized by the OS, with Windows and OS X it requires installation of the drivers.

It is much simpler to get the tablet to address pressure sensitivity and the eraser than you think. The question should be why not! Using a program like Gimp or Inkscape it is always easier to have the feel of a pencil, brush, etc. This post the examples and configs are done on Fedora 27 using KDE Desktop. The steps covered in this post can be used with most if not all of the Wacom family of tablets. This post is a longtime in getting written as I have had a Wacom Bamboo Fun tablet for many years and one of the issues was getting Gimp to use the pressure sensitivity of the tablet.
