I have a Wacom or other name brand tablet -- My tablet isn't being recognized: Some newer Wacom drivers don't include a wintab32.dll file which is necessary for Qt to receive tablet input. Driver 6.3.31-4 is the newest Wacom driver (09/18) that officially supports this software. Download here: http://cdn.wacom.com/u/productsupport/drivers/win/professional/WacomTablet_6.3.31-4.exe

I have a cheap tablet -- My tablet isn't being recognized: Some cheaper tablets have software that introduce bugs in the Wintab driver. (E.g. Adesso, Aiptek, Genius, Peritab, Trust) Memory allocation isn't handled properly by the drivers that come with these tablets, so these tablets aren't supported. (Sorry)
