This issue has been fixed in 0.7.7-3. Please download it and install the prebuilt driver and programs by the install script under linuxwacom-0.7.7-3/prebuilt: bunzip2 linuxwacom-0.7.7-3.tar.bz2 tar xvf linuxwacom-0.7.7-3.tar cd linuxwacom-0.7.7-3/prebuilt su ./install reboot > Section "ServerLayout" > Identifier "Default Layout" > Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 > InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" > InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" > InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents" > InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents" > InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents" > InputDevice "pad" > Option "AIGLX" "true" > EndSection > > Section "InputDevice" > Identifier "pad" > Driver "wacom" > Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" > Option "Type" "pad" > Option "USB" "on" > Option "Button4" "6" > Option "Button5" "7" > Option "Button9" "4" > Option "Button13" "5" > EndSection > To send X event from pad, you need to add "SendCoreEvents" to the pad in ServerLayout section: InputDevice "pad" ServerLayout Then, in your pad's InputDevice section, add: Option "Button1" "6" Option "Button2" "7" The sad news is that there are only 2 buttons on Graphire 4 tablet. The good news is the wheel on the pad is translated into 4th and 5th buttons by default when you roll the wheel up or down.
