[COLUG] Compiling Wacom on CentOS/RHEL

Here are a few notes of interest for someone trying to compile the latest 
Wacom Tablet drivers on CentOS or RHEL.

You need to install the packages kernel-devel and kernel-headers; if 
you're running Xen or PAE, don't forget to install kernel-xen-devel or 
kernel-PAE-devel.

When you go to compile the Wacom drivers, you should configure it thusly, 
correcting the kernel directory for normal or PAE kernels:

./configure --enable-wacom 
--with-kernel=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-53.1.4.el5-xen-i686

I'm not currently next to my dev box at the moment, but I'll see if this 
worked tonight.

Cheers,
-J
