In case anyone was wondering, Wacom tablets do work with Inkscape if they are configured to act as regular pointing devices.
It works "out of the box" with Apple's X server, but with XFree86 you will need to have the "SendCoreEvents" option turned on if you do not already.
I believe it should just work on Windows also, though I have not tried it.
Note that we do not support pressure/tilt sensitivity or any tablet-specific features yet.

I started an RFE on WACOM tablets and adding pressure sensitivity support here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=950969&grou...
Interested parties, please check it out and add your thoughts.

I added these findings to the notes section of the manpage.
