Review: Intuos
All features supported out of the box on most distros. (2014 edition)
The wacom intuos drawing tablet is fully supported out of the box on ubuntu and other distros with the xserver-xorg-input-wacom
package installed. The tablet is configurable through the xsetwacom
command line tool. While the cli tool is not as user friendly as the GUI tool for windows and macOS it is feature complete and can configure the tablet buttons as well as many other settings for the tablet.
