[ Things To Install Before Running ]

libwacom xf86-input-wacom 

(your wacom tablet should work without needing the extra steps bellow after restarting)

(huion tablets will need these too

This Guide can help figuring out the proper line of code -> https://github.com/DIGImend/digimend-kernel-drivers

open a terminal and run " lsusb " without quotes to get your tablets ID number then

for huion tablets enter the next few lines of text here

sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-tablet.conf

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "Tablet"
    Driver "wacom"
    MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
    MatchUSBID "<VID>:<PID>"
EndSection

save and reboot, your huion tablet should now work
