How to get "userspace-tablet-driver-daemon" work on FreeBSD 13.1?

[rajhlinux]

Alright, I have built it on FreeBSD 13.1

I ran the command:
userspace_tablet_driver_daemon

And this is the only output I get:

Listening on socket /home/user/.local/var/run/userspace_tablet_driver_daemon.sock
xp_pen_handler initialized
huion_handler initialized
Saved updated configuration file

Nothing else happens...

I have a XP-Pen Star G640 tablet.

Here are my PC info:
OS: FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE-p5 amd64
Uptime: 1 hour, 12 mins
Packages: 1637 (pkg)

Thanks.

If the driver does not detect your device it is likely because it does not use the alternate unlock bit that is used by the current generation of XP-Pen devices.

In this case, the device will need to have drivers written specifically targeting it. If you know or would like to try getting libinput/termcap to give you USB packet dumps you can try and implement it yourself.

Apart from that the only alternatives is someone else who owns the tablet takes on the implementation or I go and buy the tablet myself and do it myself.

Thank You for your reply.

Wow that is interesting.
It makes sense why so many numerous different implementations did not work.

I will try to give many information and see if we can get this to work:

When I do: xsetwacom list devices
The return is simply blank.

Here is what xinput list shows:

I would like to see if I can implement libinput/termcap to get USB packet dumps.
Have no clue how could this be done. I will do a google.

Thanks.

On the positive side, it looks like libinput is working correctly since it is assuming control over the device.

I've gone ahead and bought the tablet. I'll see if I can implement the device when I receive it.

Commit 954565d should add support for the G640. Please let me know if it does not work for you.
