I have a Trust tablet and CS4 and have experienced problems with draw. The problems have already been stated in the thread <http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b6c5ed/53> regarding Wacom tablets, and apply to Genius tablets as well as Trust.

As I have said in that thread, when I draw with the tablet and then select another tool, such as type, then try and draw with the tablet again, all I get is a straight line between the start and the end point. There is no such problem in earlier versions of Photoshop.

However,I have just noticed something odd. I was experimenting, trying to fix the lag in my screen redraw, drawing and typing (also see relevant thread- "CS4 lag. What graphic card will it take?") and thought I would change the screen refresh rate. After I did that, the tablet started working again perfectly, and this "fix" works every time. This happens even if I start to change the screen refresh rate, but then cancel.

Since I have an Nvidia card, and this fix is playing with the card settings, I wonder if it is all related to the obvious problems CS4 and Nvidia have with each other? Can someone else try?
