Just curious, with as many graphics gurus as there seem to be on this forum, is any one using a wacom tablet or a cintiq display? If so, was it hard to get it configured? I'm still searching for the best graphics set up I can build.Another question, is any one using wine to run Photoshop or Painter X? I have these installed on an XP machine, but would finally like everything integrated onto one machine .

OK this is my second attempt to answer, I personally don't use Wacom or a Cintig Display, cost a factor. You can use a scanner to upload a image to your Graphic program whatever it might be. I havn't had any luck using wine at all for Win. Graphic programs jfg69 has also tried..he would of goated me if he had any luck..lol. Here is a article of someone building a Cintiq Display. http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/16/uk-a ... under-200/
Virtual box may be a solution or a avenue to take it is listed in Synaptic's..I might try that myself. ;)

Edit: I would hold off on trying to install Vitual Box, there seems to be a bug in the configuration of the kernel.
