  • Any drawing tablet recommendations?
    2 projects | /r/archlinux | 16 Jan 2022
    I was able to make use of my Veikk S640 before in linux using a community-made driver. It worked great, but the tablet, itself, is not that durable. The tablet's surface got scraped off by the pen over a year of usage. I don't even press hard on my pen and I use light sensitivity on the pen pressure settings. It has now an official driver from Veikk, but I haven't tried it.
