LGTM. Talked to our opentabletdriver-bin Gentoo maintainer about this, they think this is a good idea too.

A source package now exists for OpenTabletDriver on gentoo, it is in a much better state, uses the latest version of OTD, the scripts are updated, etc etc.
I haven't personally tested these instructions but considering that it still uses the keyword these instructions should work.
The only "problem" I see here is that its a different maintainer, which maybe we should note somewhere?
Also even on systemd no systemd service is provided (on both packages), so we should probably relink the section to point directly at the other init systems section or place a note elsewhere. Not a biggie though.
Here is a link to the new package: https://github.com/gentoo/guru/tree/master/x11-drivers/OpenTabletDriver
