Pen Tablets for Linux??

[Olya B]

Hi everyone,

I need a pen tablet to draw manga/cartoons/anime on the computer.

The OS I am using is Linux and the program I draw in is Gimp.

I looked at Trust 1200-V2 pen tablet and Wacom pen tablets.

Wacom are too expensive and professional for me, so it's a no. Trust has mixed reviews and I'm not sure whether I should buy it.

Can someone suggest a good pen tablet that will most likely/defenetly work in Linux, in Gimp. I am looking at something at the middle level (not professional but not amateurish either) and not too expensive - 100 pounds max. The preferable size is around A4. The bigger the better.

Thank you very much!!! I really appreciate it.
