Got your PM.

I am not sure what a Genius Tablet is, so I need to do some research.

Can you tell us the model of the tablet?

I found this site that several people have posted the results and model using a driver they have there. Apparently, they are using a modified AceCad tablet driver and getting some success.

I did as he said and edited the xorg.conf file and installed the required drivers by adding the repositories to yast. Now the x is not starting I am not getting the login screen. The startx command is too not working . So what to do ?? I just edited again the xorg.conf file and deleted all the lines that i had added. Now the X is working but the Tablet is not working ?? Any Help ???

Having never installed or used a tablet, I don't know where to guide you next. I was hoping that using his guide, it would simply work.

well thanks for the driver link .
If U can figure out something then please tell me as i have no important data on my system only about 3000 songs which I can afford to loose. If my system crashes then I can afford to go for a re installation
