IT/Hardware/Tablets

General

There are many kinds of tablets.

Our experience had been mostly with Wacom

They are the industry standard

Multiple Screens

Often you have multiple screens and want the table to only work on one screen

The reason is that the tablet becomes divided between two screens making writing and drawing difficult

• First know the names of your screens.
  • You can do this with System Settings
  • Or command line.

xrandr

• Then get a device list

xinput

• Then assign to one screen

xinput map-to-output 18 HDMI-1-1

Wacom

On a wireless tablet you may want to know the Battery Percentage.

upower -e

Find your battery and copy the name including the entire path

upower -i name

It will change its name when coming on and off.

XP-Pen

Bought my first XP-Pen Min 7W on AliExpress in Jan of 2021

Works amazingly well.
