I do not have the keyboard, but I do have the pen.
The pen doesn't work like it does in Windows. It's effectively a mouse. When you click the side button it immediately does a right click without even touching the screen.
Does the pen work probably in drawing or journal software (like Krita and Xournal++)?
@chrisgestapo @cyborganism I have a Thinkpad Yoga where the touchscreen is a wacom tablet, and the included pen works with variable pressure for brush strokes like it should.
And indeed Gnome, with its big fat rounded buttons/toggles works very well.
Well, like I said, it works like a mouse. I haven't tried it in these applications, but I would assume there wouldn't be any pressure sensitive drawing.
It's possible I need to install the proper module for it. I haven't explored that yet because it's not really what I need.
