I opted for the medium one largely for the OLED labels (which of course I
can't use in Linux yet) and the additional buttons that are provided.
Finding space on my desk has been a challenge.
Getting the Linux drivers working didn't take very long once I stopped
trying to configure options that didn't make sense - like the "mode" for
the pad buttons being "absolute" or "relative" - no meaning, and X didn't
like me setting that option at all.
It was interesting to me as well that it sent through actual keystrokes
for the button press - CTL+ALT+SHIFT+F1 dumped me to tty1. Caught me by
surprise because I was expecting Firefox to launch. ;-)
I'm no artist, just been spending time playing in the Gimp and Inkscape.
And Xournal, which is a pretty neat app for just doodling. I may even
take my whiteboard down now. :-) (But I doubt it)
