Leopard Penpower Tooya tablet writes 10000"s of diags-syslogd 100% busy

Hello all, forgive me if this is the wrong forum to post this question regarding Leopard support (what is the correct driver) for the Penpower Tooya writing tablet?

I would like to know what the CORRECT driver is for this hardware. I have installed the stuff that came from the tablet and kit. It is V1.66 for the driver.

It does work ok however with nothig running and a few pen touches on the tablet (like a Wacom GTE), both the MACBOOKPRO's dual CPUS go to 100%CPU each with syslogd extremely busy!

A quick look into the console and, I see low and behold a zillion of the following messages.

These look like penpower or "Hyperpendriver" developer diags.. this is so slack if that is the case! 😟

I bought this penpower tablet yesterday for my wife for her MACBOOKPRO so she can input Chinese (trad and simplified) using the tablet and stylus. She has an old Powerbook G4 with Penpower stylus/tablet and old software tht works great but under 10.4.2 only.

Penpower ( http://www.penpower.net) , a Taiwanese company have release the TooyaPRO tablet for Leopard (and thse other brandx sofwtare companies).

I've pulled the stuff of from ftp.penpower.net.tw, howver iy is the same as the stuff I have on the installer DVD's.

Yes, I have been to the PENPOWER web site looking for suport and YES I did email them and NO I havenot heard back.

So, I was hoping someone on htese forums would know of this issue?

Thanks for any help

I have bought the Penpower handwriter which come with TAB 403 tablet. The driver for TAB 403 come with the software CD does not work in OSX 10.5.2. The support guy from Taiwan send me another version which suppose to work under 10.5.2 but it does not. It claim that it has to run under "classic mode". May be the HK guy also has a driver for TAB 403 tablet. Penpower support website is so poorly organize. Sad to said that they are the only company release Chinese writing software. Apple has do nothing to make Chinese input easier.

Finally got a version of driver that work under 10.5.2 for TAB 403 tablet from penpower support in Taiwan. However the penpower Chinese input software for Mac has very limited function and feature as compare to the window counterpart. You can only write the word in the penpower application rather then just write within any other's application window. Look like the Mac version is a quick fix product and many good feature from the window is yet port over.
