[wacom] where can i try it? can i compile it for linux?

talk to t grill. it's not open code, so you have to register with
wacom to see their api.

You only need to use the Wacom API on Windows and Mac OS X. With the
Linux kernel, Wacom support is part of the Linux input system, and is
totally free. No NDAs, no restrictions other than you have to share
like the GPL says :D

[hid] works with wacoms in Linux, it is just that Debian and Ubuntu
have been working on tightening up the security with each new release,
so you have to go thru extra tricks to get data via HID for something
other than the X server. I don't know the latest tricks, anyone?
