Is Huion Kamvas Pro 13 supported?

Question

I'm thinking of gifting a drawing tablet to a person who uses Ubuntu. I had my eyes on the Huion Kamvas Pro 13 and I would like to know if it is supported before making a terrible mistake. However, I couldn't find any clear information online and the related questions here on AskUbuntu are quite outdated.

PhE · Answer

I plugged my kamvas 13 pro in a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and it works :

full-hd screen recognized
stylus working well as mouse
stylus pressure working in blender !!
multi-monitor setup (except for the stylus, see below)

What does not work out-of-the-box :

tablet buttons and slider
forcing the stylus area to a single monitor (tablet) ; the stylus moves to the entire desktop

To force the stylus area read
input coordinates transformation
and
tranformation matrix.
It works with this xinput fix :
xinput set-prop 15 --type=float "Coordinate Transformation Matrix" 0.5 0 0.25 0 0.333333 0.666666 0 0 1

... here is my monitors setup :

4K monitor on top
full-HD kamvas monitor below centered

I can now work on blender with my kamvas pro 13 in a dual-monitor config !!!!
