From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

XPpen also has their own tablet drivers and is 5x the value of wacom. Wacom is the apple of drawing tablets and has been riding their own coattails for like 10 years charging ridiculous prices for old models without doing any innovation.
I think Huion also has Linux drivers now too, though their latest H1061P tablet has a hardware issue with bad pressure sensing.
Though OP was looking more for a standalone PC 2 in 1 tablet with a touchscreen that doesn't have to be plugged in at all.
Yeah, agreed. XP Pen is great value for money. I had a second hand Wacom before and it wasn't particularly better in any way.
