     @davidrevoy @lispi314 @dirtycommo @RootMoose @mmu_man This looks so incredibly cursed. Why are folks expected to apply sketchy patches to kernel to use input devices??

     @lispi314 @dirtycommo @RootMoose @mmu_man For patching the kernel with tablet drivers (the one I tested and reported the spec in my "hardware" tag on the blog). See the amount of Huion and XpPen here https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libevdev/udev-hid-bpf/-/tree/main/src/bpf/stable?ref_type=heads

     @davidrevoy @mmu_man @RootMoose @dirtycommo > Kernel without eBPF (to apply tablet driver via udev-hid-bpf)
     Why is this required?

     @mmu_man Thanks for the ping!

     Debian 13? What D.E.? X11 or Wayland? Deb13 is unfortunately on the no-go valley imo for tablet support: Kernel without eBPF (to apply tablet driver via udev-hid-bpf) , Gnome and Plasma Wayland, libinput version without descent options or GUI for Wayland tablet input.

     Only Wacoms older than 2 years before their official release date will work plug and play and offer a good set of options. Advice: pick one on the second hand market.
