So, I recently bought a Wacom Touchpad, and it works great on my computer, I'm loving it a ton! However, it got me thinking...could I use this on my Pandora? A quick Google search got me some links from people who apparantly have attempted to port the drivers to Linux. If so, could I in turn "port" those to the Pandora? Here's some of the links I found:

http://us.wacom.com/en/developerrelations/linux/

http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxwacom/

And the Touchpad in question that I got is the "Intuos" version, seen here:

Let me know if this is possible, and thanks in advance!

(P.S.

   I should mention that it connects via USB, and it is USB 2.0/3.0, [i'm not sure which] so it doesn't even read when plugged into the Pandora natively, however I have a converter, and after using that, the touchpad's two lights at the top light up, as if it's reading the connection fine. It even reacts to the touchpen by lighting up blue whenever it comes within close proximity of the pad. However, my understanding is that the Pandora simply doesn't know what to do with it yet...)
 
You may want to give one of the other OSes a try, debian or slackware should have wacom drivers in their repo. 

Saxxon is simply too small to include this stuff.

Also it might be useful to see what the dmesg command tells about this device.
