I did a four-page short comic for Le Lombard (Belgian publisher), it was a contribution to a big book project in French, featuring 24 other comic artists; an "advent calendar" book for Christmas. And yes, you have to cut the page every day in December to reveal a new story. I negotiated to have mine published on CC-By and made it using only FLOSS :linux: :krita: :inkscape: .

@davidrevoy I wonder if I could get this by mail order (and will it arrive on time)

I have just posted on my blog my review video and documentation on how to install the "XPpen Artist Pro 19 (Gen 2)" display graphics tablet on GNU/Linux using only Free (libre) and Open Source software.

> there will never be a single Wayland method to configure a tablet under any desktop environment, but a Gnome-on-Wayland method, a KDE/Plasma-on-Wayland method, a Sway-on-Wayland method, etc

> I'm using a Debian 12 KDE on X11 setup. On it, I could setup the tablet correctly with a collection of xsetwacom command-lines executed at system boot via a script

Sounds like Wayland kind of sucks.

Thanks again to everyone who came to my Krita workshop at the Capitole du Libre yesterday. Here's a drawing for you πŸ˜‰

I’ve been working hard on my video review of the Huion Kamvas 19 Pro using only Free/Libre and Open Source Software. Can’t wait to share it with you next week! In the meantime, here’s a piece I painted with it! 🎨

@davidrevoy Your touch is fabulous! I'm astonished 🀩 Bravo πŸ‘

@davidrevoy I'm fucking loving you as an artist.

Please don't take fuckin love literally

David Revoy

I have done a lot of testing, diagnosing and reporting over the last few days, both for the Huion Kamvas Pro 19 and the XpPen Artist Pro 19 (gen2) using only free/libre and open source software. :linux:

Thanks to Benjamin Tissoires and @whot (but also JosΓ© ExpΓ³sito ) and the great udev-hid-bpf project, both models are now running very well. πŸŽ‰
I'll now work on the blog posts and review videos (and a comparison).

@davidrevoy thanks I remembered I need to email th debian mailing list asking about running udev- hid-bpf with default kernel.

Thanks for testing the devices and helping in getting proper support

Bart Groeneveld

@davidrevoy @whot What is the device on the left of your laptop? A few buttons and a dial?

Edit: sorry, I didn't read the issue. Apparently the buttons normally found on a drawing tablet itself.

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @whot@fosstodon.org hopefully support for huion and xp-pen devices on linux can be as well supported on linux as wacom devices

i've been sticking with an aging cintiq (its over 10 years old but still works, and i've stuck with it since i know it works on linux works better than it did on windows honestly) but i know eventually i'm gonna have to replace it, and i've been holding off on thinking about that out of uncertainty about whether or not a huion or xp-pen would work (i know there are drivers, but i'm less certain about them working... and if i'm spending hundreds of dollars on a screen tablet...) and a new wacom is way too expensive

Holy guacamole, Huion has finally agreed to send hardware for one of my "Running on GNU/Linux with only Free/Libre and Open Source Software" reviews. I've been working on that for years!

@davidrevoy

is that tablet-stylus hardware like wacom?

@davidrevoy so far I've been a huge fan of my Huion stuff, hope it works for you!

@davidrevoy Talking about open-source firmware, are there any macropads that use QMK? qmk.fm/

@davidrevoy I found using the xppen artist pro 16tp on Ubuntu with wayland and multiple screens to be a crap fest with crashing drivers for the tablet functionality and setting the active area in the software being a pain. The screen came straight up though

Finding my comic book in a bookstore, let alone in another country, is both surprising and humbling. It's a small joy I was grateful for during my trip to the Raptus comic festival in Bergen, Norway.

I just posted more about it on my blog (photos, a watercolor and fan-arts I received) : davidrevoy.com/article1044/pho

David Revoy

Just arrived in Bergen for the signing session at Raptus festival! 🌟 I saw my first aurora last night, thanks to the great convention team. I’m still thinking about it while having breakfast! β˜•

Just got the photos of last night's #aurora. Imagine this IRL very very subtle: the long exposure capability of this camera revealed more than what we could actually see. But it was still an amazing experience.

@davidrevoy incredibly super cute Owo. Since I first saw your drawings, I have a strong tendency to draw cat eyes the same way as you do.
