opentabletdriver does not work

I have tried to install open tablet driver via the bazzite portal, via 'ujust install-opentabletdriver', and via flatpak, so far, nothing has worked, and I cannot use my drawing tablet. my tablet is a Huion H610 PRO, and it is scanned for in the opentabletdriver program, however, it seems to fail. no tablet is detected how do I fix this?

there does seem to be an rpm, you can install the latest one manually from here: https://github.com/OpenTabletDriver/OpenTabletDriver/releases

download rpm, then rpm-ostree install filename_here.rpm https://opentabletdriver.net/Wiki/Install/Linux#fedora not sure if you need to do the dracut command but based on the error message you posted, it looks like the ujust might be broken

I tried installing it manually, but it still does not work, what is the dracut command?

@Kyle Gospo is there a recommended way to install the open tablet driver? the ujust doesn't seem to work

The ujust might need to be revisited It's just installing it in an arch distrobox Since it's userspace I would give that exact thing a try yourself and see if it works for you

I don't have a device to actually test with 🤔

I just gave that a shot, installing it manually in the arch distrobox, sadly it did not help.

sadly, it did not work in my case. Apparently, I have a varient of the H610 Pro that is not supported very well.I was told that it will not be resolved until at least the next release and is caused by OTD not being able to differentiate identifiers with the same report lengths.

too bad then, the name sounded similar lol so i thought its worth a try, atleast the maintainer are fixing it and you can wait for the next release

iirc they only provide debian package, could be possible but it will be very cursed

hold up, I know opentabletdriver is deployed as an arch container, I think a debian container might work! I will go look for a tutorial online though, that is far from the scope of this thread

oh i thought it was layered, you could certainly try

yeah, it did not work as expected, oh well.. I wonder, is there a way to boot a desktop environment from a container? I used rpm-ostree kargs --delete=modprobe.blacklist=hid_uclogic to re-enable that kernel module, however, the wacom module was not in the blacklist, how do I enable the wacom kerel module?
