Any tips on how to get tablet pressure to go under linux?
The tablet test-app shows the pressure is working, put
inkscape (0.44) doesn't seem to do anything with it?
I can use the tablet+stylus to 'draw' with the line and caligraphy
tools, but the pressure never seems to effect it.
To followup my own post:
(1)
In the 'stylus and pad' section of your xorg.conf, add the
'PressCurve' option:
Option "PressCurve" "0,0,100,100"
With this (shown) being the default.

(disclaimer: I'm not 100% sure you need this)
(2)
Ensure your tablet pressure is set to '3' in the Inkscape
[File] -> [Input Devices]
Ref:

If you don't see your device listed in 'Extended Input Devices'
then you probably have it set to an incorrect event queue.
A Wacom drawing tablet (like the Graphire 4) still appears to
function correctly if configured with an incorrect queue
(maybe only if it's on the mouse queue).
After doing this, it started working for me.
