Limiting drawing area of a Genius G-Pen f610 (Waltop)

I wasn’t sure if anyone had asked this question yet, but here it goes…

I have a Genius G-pen F610 I’d like to use on my desktop running OpenSUSE 12.2. So far everything seems to work well, with one minor exception: the size and shape of my tablet. The Genius G-pen is a 6" x 10" tablet, so it has a 16:9 aspect ratio, but my monitor has a 4:3 aspect ratio running at 1280 x 1024 resolution, so anything I draw with it ends up getting very elongated due to the size of the screen and the tablet being so different.

My question I guess would be this: is there any way at all to limit the area of the screen the tablet can use? Is there a special driver or a .conf file that can be edited to make this possible?

I tried xinput --list in terminal and got this:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                          id=2    [master pointer  (3)]⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ USB Optical Mouse                         id=8    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ WALTOP International Corp. Slim Tablet stylus     id=10   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard                         id=3    [master keyboard (2)]
    ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard               id=5    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Power Button                              id=6    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Power Button                              id=7    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard              id=9    [slave  keyboard (3)]

Assuming the Waltop driver is my tablet, I decided to try xinput list-props “WALTOP International Corp. Slim Tablet stylus” and got this:

Once I can somehow limit the area of the screen this tablet can use, I can start using OpenSUSE exclusively for my work without having to rely on windows anymore. :stuck_out_tongue: Any help or advice I can get with this would be greatly appreciated.lol!
