The version of wacom driver in the kernel source tree is vastly outdated. The earliest kernel version at kernel.org that includes support for Bamboo Fun is 2.6.25-rc7. I guess it's unlikely the new driver is going to make it into Hardy final.

Why is that it took so long for the new version to propagate into the kernel? The changes that make Bamboo Fun work were committed 5 months ago, according to cvs history: http://linuxwacom.cvs.sourceforge.net/linuxwacom/linuxwacom-dev/src/2.6.19/wacom_wac.c?r1=1.4&r2=1.5 .
