I managed to get AceCad tablet to work finally on Ubuntu 9.10. To do so I did:
1) Run: gksudo gedit /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-acecad.fdi
2) Pasted in the file this text:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- -->

<deviceinfo version="0.2">
 <device>
 <match key="input.originating_device" contains="if0">
 <match key="info.product" contains="ACECAD">
 <merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">acecad</merge>
 <merge key="input.x11_options.Type" type="string">stylus</merge>
 <merge key="info.product" type="string">stylus</merge>
 </match>
 </match>
 </device>
</deviceinfo>

And restarted the system.
There is only one problem - after making this change I can't write my national chars (with alt) on the keyboard so something is still wrong.
