As for the website and howto there - I tried that too, but the module just wouldn't build for some reason, even with all the dependancies in place.
OK, ... well, ... good on ya for doing all that research! Sorry to read it wasn't successful.

You could submit a request to the build service to have the wacom driver redone for the bamboo (assuming bamboo support is in the driver). I have not submitted a request to the build service myself, so I can't really help there.

Or alternatively, try contact user dkukawka and very very politely, ask if he has some suggestions on how to build the package?
User: Dkukawka home page - openSUSE
I note it is his repository (repos) that has the latest tablet rpm packages, and he did do his thesis in tablets. And on his web site, he does state: "If you need some help to get you Tablet PC running feel free to ask me. " ....

I suspect I will be contacting him about getting my wife's table to work, ... BUT not before I research her tablet a bit more, and try some things on my own first.
