Espen: This post is related to Karmic and your instructions are the ones for Lucid. In karmic is a little different, I take it from the frankgroeneweld.nl site as well:

tar -xf linuxwacom-0.8.6.tar.bz2
cd linuxwacom-0.8.6
./configure --enable-wacom
make
# I know 2.6.30 is the wrong number, but it's the highest available and it works just fine
sudo cp src/2.6.30/wacom.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/input/tablet/
sudo cp src/util/10-linuxwacom.fdi /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/10-linuxwacom.fdi
sudo cp src/xdrv/wacom_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wacom_drv.so

Nothe the differences:
-- The compilation is executed in the linuxwacom-0.8.6 directory instead of src/2.6.30/
-- In this approach are required to copy de fdi file and the wacom_drv.so as the wacom.ko file
