Here is a link to the one I bought. I don't have it in my possession yet.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/5-5-x-4-DigiPro-WP5540-USB-Graphics-Tablet-w-Cordless-Pen-Black-New-/380544404703?pt=US_Graphics_Tablets_Boards_Pens&hash=item589a36ccdf

It says it is compatible with windows 98se up to 7 and I'm using Wine to run AutoCad2000 in so I'm sure I can get it to work in AutoCad. I'd like to have it work in linux too. Sounds like this link you gave me (thx) will let me know. I should have it in a few days. I have to set Wine to windows 98 to get my version of AutoCad to run so it and the tablet should be compatible. Its also a wintab compatible tablet too.
I bookmarked the link so I can see if it will work in Ubuntu when the tablet gets here

While I have your ear or eyes I have another question. I recently bought a mitsubishi graphic tablet 01 and thought for sure I could find a driver for it but I've not been able to even get close. Is there a linux driver that might work. It is more designed for Cad use than the tablet I just bought and if I could get it to work I'd use it and forget this other one.
Thanks for the help

ETA: I need to add the model of mitsubishi I have. It is a Mitsubishi Grafnet 01
