Will Gimp support bamboo?

Following the advice of several on this list, I bought the Wacom brand,

Will SuSE11 support Bamboo? I bought the medium Bamboo, the $130 model,but I don't see a model number.
I go to YAST, install hardware, tablet properties, Wacom, and then it opens up to give me four Wacom choises:
Graphire serial or usb, and Intuos serial and usb. There is no option for Bamboo.
Should I chose one of those?

Also, do I need the installation disks? The disks say for mac or windows (of course).

Thanks for help,

A recent version of linuxwacom should support Bamboo explicitly. Either your version of linuxwacom is too old to support Bamboo explicitly, or that option is omitted from the GUI.

IIRC selecting Graphire USB should work with the Bamboo (which is USB-only, right?)

Nope.
