So far, mixed results mostly unsuccessful. 

Is anything on this page relevant?

https://wiki.freebsd.org/action/recall/WacomTablet?action=recall&rev=3

1) I'm guessing there is some sort of moused issue: I attempted to turn
it off in /etc/rc.conf. I'm not sure how to describe the results more
clearly than "that's odd." What I used:

moused_nondefault_enable="NO"
moused_enable="NO"

It was only in this case that the tablet appeared in Inkscape, but the
behavior was odd. It was late at night when I was trying this, and I
don't recall what happened with Gimp, but it generally failed.

2) Perhaps an issue with devfs.rules? I tried various rules but they
were not helpful.

If I understand the main Wiki page, the tablet should just work with
these entries:

rc.conf:

devd_enable="YES"
hald_enable="YES"
webcamd_enable="YES"

loader.conf:

cuse4bsd_load="YES"

The tablet is a Wacom Bamboo Capture, model CTH-470.

Thanks for your help, and best regards,

Joe
