Windows 7 Ultimate
Wacom Bamboo Fun

Hey there =):

Bug General Description:
Unintuitive / undesired Tablet compability issues using this programs on Windows.

GIMP:
  Fix:
    Open Gimp then open Tablet preferences, I didn't need to reset any custom cfg.
    Pen tip pressure is recognized.

  Undesired Behavior:
    Eraser works just like the pen tip.

INKSCAPE:
  Fix:
    File > Preferences > Mouse:
      Uncheck: "Use pressure-sensitive tablet..."
      I close the dialog NOT using the Windows window Close (X) button but Inkscape button.
      Restart (close and open) Inkscape.

      I can use Pen, tablet and mouse.

  Undesired Behavior:
    Eraser works just like the pen tip.
    No pressure recognized (at least not noticeable while using Calligraphy tool).
    File > Preferences > Mouse > Checkbox: "Switch tool based on tablet devise..." option did not produce any noticeable difference.

Comment:
I hope you improve this, Inkscape seems really promising.
