...I think on some Panasonic CF-C2 models (I have the CF-C2CCAZXCM model that comes also with a stylus), the USB id changed and it isn't recognized by the current wacom.ko kernel module .

Most of my sources online were from varied websites found via Google, but the most important website was probably:
Anyway, I hope it helps someone out there.
