Revising upward

My current theory regarding the settings on my tablet in the xorg.conf dictates that I keep the X and Y coordinates on a 4:3 ratio, because that's how the 4.5" x 6" screen measures out. So to try and smooth things out, here's the new xorg.conf (changed sections are in boldface):

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "WizardPen Tablet"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Driver "wizardpen"
Option "Device" "/dev/tablet-event"
Option "TopZ" "0"
Option "TopX" "0"
Option "TopY" "0"
Option "BottomZ" "250"
Option "BottomX" "80000"
Option "BottomY" "60000"
Option "MaxX" "80000"
Option "MaxY" "60000"
Option "MaxZ" "1024"
EndSection

I'll put something up tomorrow using these settings, and see if they help.

The system

Just to get the basic groundwork out of the way, here's what I'm dealing with on the technical side:

My computer is running Ubuntu Linux, version 7.04 (Feisty Fawn - hey, nobody consults me on these names).

The tablet is a Genius G-Pen 560, running on the WizardPen driver, version 0.5.0.

I generally prefer to use the GIMP over any other graphics program. Call it a personal bias.

Here's the relevant section of my xorg.conf file as pertains to my tablet:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "WizardPen Tablet"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Driver "wizardpen"
Option "Device" "/dev/tablet-event"
Option "TopZ" "0"
Option "TopX" "0"
Option "TopY" "0"
Option "BottomZ" "250"
Option "BottomX" "60000"
Option "BottomY" "45000"
Option "MaxX" "60000"
Option "MaxY" "45000"
Option "MaxZ" "1024"
EndSection

And that's that. Now we can get on to the (hopefully) good part.
