Ive got myself a DTU-1031X which is a graphical drawing tablet, it uses usb-B for input output, display. In my case I'm able to draw but beyond that there isn't an output to the tablet, I have install displaylink, and wacoms drivers. Any advice?

Maybe check your display settings? My tablet worked out of the box and is treated as a monitor. On x11 it shows up in xrandr.

Wayland seems to be different, maybe I'll install x11 DWM

Have you tried OpenTabletDriver?

Tablets not supported sadly

Make a GitHub issue, or join their Discord server and make a thread in #config-creation. It's fairly easy to add support for Wacom tablets.

~~Not so sure about display output, though. There are some people who know tablets very well, so you can ask them too.~~ I read about your tablet and I think it will be pretty hard to get display working on Linux. It's not an actual display, but a sign pad, I guess?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
