Well... Although I personally never had real problems with using my tablet when developing Krita (I use OpenSUSE which has an admirable track record), there are always issues cropping up with wacom, the Qt tablet support and distributions. Sometimes the tablet buttons stop working, sometimes the stylus buttons stop working, sometimes there's no pressure, and sometimes there's weirdness with multi-monitor setup. Every upgrade, I Krita users come to me wailing that their tablet broke for one reason or the other. It's not just the driver, though, Qt's tablet support breaks every other version as well.
