origami-sheep: do you know for a fact that a kernel module exists for this tablet?
Looking in the kernel modules, I see modules for these tablets:

acecad.ko aiptek.ko gtco.ko kbtab.ko wacom.ko
The source shows maybe more:
acecad.h aiptek.h gtco.h kbtab.h wacom.h acecad.h aiptek.h gtco.h kbtab.h wacom.h

Is the Kworld Kanvas tablet compatible with a linux supported one, or do you know where Linux modules are available?
