Do you support the xp-pen tablets?

spbnick commented 6 years ago

We should support some XP-Pen tablets, because some of them are just rebranded Ugee tablets, but I don't believe we support XP-Pen Star 06 yet.

reya276 commented 6 years ago

I was able to perform a test and it looks like the tablet it self is being recognized by the system. If you see the pastebin of evtest-(https://pastebin.com/b3EaMfZp) and this one as well(https://pastebin.com/uQXNKMn2). So I'm thinking that maybe I need to create a profile for the tablet. The problem is that I do not know how to do that. Is there a site that I can maybe copy template and modify it. I'm thinking using XINPUT.

hey is there any possible way you can provide a .conf for any Xp-Pen tablet. Because for some reason my laptop is recognizing the tablet and it even clicks like a mouse does. So I'm thinking that maybe it needs a configuration file. I created one but I don't think I did it correctly, 52-tablet.conf

I can see that XP Pen has released Linux drivers for Star 06. Can you try this driver ?

That driver is hot garbage. It apparently works by grabbing low level usb/hid events and then emitting synthetic x events. Doesn't even run on my desktop. More of a hot-key remapper than anything...

Well if you can think of a better way to build the driver, feel free to help them out. I'm pretty sure they'll want to get some input from Linux users.
