Hi all,

i just went from windows to ubuntu 14 and the first thing i needed to get to work was osu ofc.
I didn't find any tutorial how to do it this easy way i found and i didn't find any clean tutorial here on how to setup wacom tablet(area) correctly..

It is really very easy to do..

1) Install Wine
Terminal: sudo apt-get install wine

2) Install PlayOnLinux
Terminal: sudo apt-get install playonlinux

3) Open playonlinux
Then on the right side click on "install a program" and search for osu

4) Follow the steps in the GUI
If you didn't notice: Don't run osu! when it says the installation has finished.

5) update osu!
You can't login into osu because the version is too old. Just let osu update automatically and press on restart. Now you are done!


For Wacom tablet users:
I am Wacom tablet user and needed to get my old configs back..
Ubuntu comes natively with a wacom tablet driver, just click on "system settings" and under hardware you will find the wacom tablet settings..
You can choose the monitor there and some other things.

Here is the solution to change the tablet area:
Terminal: xsetwacom list devices

You will see somthing like:

Wacom Intuos S Pad pad id: 12 type: PAD
Wacom Intuos S Pen stylus id: 13 type: STYLUS
Wacom Intuos S Pen eraser id: 14 type: ERASER

You need to notice the id of STYLUS.
In my case it is id 13..

Now you can change its coordinates with this command:

xsetwacom set <id> Area x1 y1 x2 y2
id: your STYLUS id
x1: left
y1: top
x2: right
y2: bottom

In my case it is:
xsetwacom set 13 Area 0 0 2500 3000

So here you go!
