XP-Pen Deco 01 v2 with DIGImend driver

  1. Install kcm-wacomtablet, libwacom and xf86-input-wacom packages.
  2. Install required kernel headers, for example linux511-headers package.
  3. Clone git repository from https://github.com/ihewitt/digimend-kernel-drivers
  4. Run: sudo make dkms_install in the source repository.

Now that’s done, there are two files that need to be added for our tablet. Download these two text files - once downloaded, rename them to remove the .txt extension. After that copy the files into the directories indicated:

Change [Buttons] section in the xp-pen-dec01.tablet.txt to:

[Buttons]
Left=A;B;C;D;E;F;G;H;
EvdevCodes=0x100;0x101;0x102;0x103;0x104;0x105;0x106;0x107

Uninstall

To uninstall, run sudo make dkms_uninstall in the source repository (/usr/src/digimend-10/) and remove above files.
