Ok, mine was a simple small hack, no GUI, hard-coded values and it only
worked with my particular Wacom tablet (serial port, not USB!), but I
could imagine with the kernel's HID driver it shouldn't be too difficult
to adapt to other hardware and USB, too. After all, this took a
not-really-developer like me just a few hours to do.
(And yes, I wanted to clean up and upload that little hack somewhere for
quite a while now :-).
Greetings,
Frank
