The EXPECTED behaviour of my Trust TB-4200 tablet (reported as "08ca:0010 Aiptek International, Inc. Tablet" by lsusb) : 
 - moving cursor when moving pen over tablet
 - clicking as mouse button 1 when typing pen on tablet
 - dragging/tracing when moving pen while touching/pressing the tablet
This is the OS X behaviour (tested on Gimp 2.4)
The tablet is behaviouring fine on windows

ACTUAL Ubuntu 8.10 behaviour : 
like explained at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1029302
To sum up : 
 - moving pen over tablet moves cursor until you touch the tablet
 - then moving cursor requires you to touch the tablet while moving
 - impossible to drag/trace without clikcing mouse button (not very easy!)

Note : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AiptekTablet didn't helped
