Hi Wade, this script worked well for me, and the tablet stays working  
after a reboot. I also made the xorg.conf changes as suggested by  
Chris (Option "Suppress" "60") and it's a very good improvement for XO  
hardware Before this extra step the canvas would only redraw once you  
stopped drawing, even with a small brush.
