Sadly, this is true. I did most of the changes required to make uwacom 
work with FreeBSD 8/9/10 but never quite finished that work. Real life 
and my PhD just got in the way too much :(.

  I noticed that webcamd supports the Linux Wacom driver now as well and 
have been wanting to try this out myself. I am especially curious 
whether it supports multiple input devices properly (stylus, eraser, 
puck, all via the same /dev/input/event0). If so, this should give 
FreeBSD the same level of Wacom tablet support as Linux has, out of the 
box, without the need for a dedicated driver.
