Even the browser-keys work "out of the box" (tested with firefox 3.0). Great!

== Tablet Buttons ==

Follow the Instructions on [[Tablet Hardware Buttons]].

== Wacom Stylus ==

You just have to activate the Tablet using Sax2 GUI.
There is an information at the end of the [http://www.suse.de/relnotes/i386/openSUSE/11.0/RELEASE-NOTES.en.html Release Notes]:
TabletPC Configuration: xsetwacom Parameters
Use the following xsetwacom Parameters now:
*For normal orientation (0° rotation):
xrandr -o 0 && xsetwacom set "Mouse[7]" RotateNONE
*For 90° rotation (clockwise, portrait):
xrandr -o 3 && xsetwacom set "Mouse[7]" Rotate CW
*For 180° rotation (landscape):
xrandr -o 2 && xsetwacom set "Mouse[7]" Rotate HALF
*For 270° rotation (counterclockwise, portrait):
xrandr -o 1 && xsetwacom set "Mouse[7]" Rotate CCW

In fact my 'device-adress' was "Mouse[5]".
