GRASS on an HP with digitizing tablet

[Jim Theriault]

Some time ago, there was a request on this newsgroup
for tips on using GRASS on an HP700 with a digitizing
tablet.  I don't recall any responses, but I have found
myself with a similar, but more specific question.

I have been using GRASS on an HP715 (and 712) with 
success until now.   All of the database information
that I have required has been in digital format.
I now want the capability to digitize vectors (such as
elevation contours) from maps.  

The first option in digitizing is to use a graphics
tablet which I found hiding in one of our labs.  
It's a HP45911C (still in the wrapper).  Unfortunately,
I have no driver info for it.  

I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has used
a similar setup OR has suggestions on alternate
digitizing hardware and drivers (that work with the
HP700s).

Thank you in advance,

Jim Theriault
