Seems like there's a new version v15.0.0.103.202208301443 @ https://www.huion.com/dowload/driver-update-log.html

But it is only compatible with a select few new devices, lock the huiontablet package to v15.0.0.89.202205241352 if you're not using one of those I guess.

I'll probably split this package up if more releases like this with different device support continue. (Huion please make this easier for me)

20230204-EDIT: Added v15.0.0.107.202209081050 and v15.0.0.121.202301131103, once again compatibility among devices seems to be iffy, check the driver update log and see which one works best for you. Also god dammit Huion, why are you silently changing peoples wayland sessions to x11, and the script they wrote only works on GDM!!

@devilmaycryyyy, I also have a HS64 and I can map all the buttons, included the ones of the pen. Now, I am using the version 15.0.0.89 as in my previous comment. Maybe the problem is with 15.0.0.103 also for the HS64! Give the old driver a shot!

And @xbelanch , it installs for me.. and I also use UTF-8, in particular I have set en_US.UTF-8 for all except for LC_TIME which I have as ja_JP.UTF-8.

Can't install huiontablet-v15.0.0.103.202208301443-1 it throws this error:

: Can't translate pathname 'usr/lib/huiontablet/res/DevImg/HUION_M184/按键1.png' to UTF-8: Can't translate pathname 'usr/lib/huiontablet/res/DevImg/HUION_M184/按键2-3.png' to UTF-8: Can't translate pathname 'usr/lib/huiontablet/res/DevImg/HUION_M184/按键5.png' to UTF-8

i an using this driver for my hs64 tablet but it doesnot let me change the button mapping it sticks to default setting please tell how to fix this

Neither the older (...1352) nor the newest (...1443) versions allow me to change the monitor my tablet surface (HS64) maps to.
On the ...1352 version, it maps to the entire surface of both monitors.
On the ...1443 version, it maps to the monitor xrandr sets as primary. EDIT: Changing primary monitors in xrandr is only detected once the huiontablet program is restarted as well.

Screenshot of the window: screenshot (edit: link) EDIT: added log for the ...1443 version on pastebin

In case you are using like me a GT-221 Kamvas Pro 22 (8192), as the maintainer mentioned, the new driver (15.0.0.103) causes the pen monitor to work badly. Only solution I found is to return to the old fashioned way: xinput

Steps for the above pen monitor specifically under xorg not sure about wayland:

Close the Tablet software to regain control then run

xinput map-to-output $(xinput | grep "HID 256c:006e Pen Pen (0)" | sed 's/^.*id=\([0-9]*\)[ \t].*$/\1/') <monitor>

Note: you need to touch the tablet with the pen in order to have the Pen Pen (0) to show up in the xinput . To find the monitor, use xrandr --listmonitors value is s.thing like HDMI-# just search for the name and add everything to your source files, I suggest an alias for the command ^^ For other tablets, just search for the right Pen by invoking xinput. This only addresses the mapping, not sensibility.

Another solution is to download the previous driver from their website at your tablet's page and use the ./install.sh it comes by. This effectively re-installs the latest working version (15.0.0.89 in my case)

@nicolas_auler Seems like it can't find the basic_string function? I think thats from gcc-libs package, tell me if it works and I can add it as a dependency

Currently have installed huiontablet v15.0.0.103.202208301443-1 in my arch, however I've been getting the following message:

/usr/lib/huiontablet/huiontablet: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/huiontablet/huiontablet: undefined symbol: _ZNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEixEm, version Qt_5

Has anyone had the same problem? I haven't been able to use the package.

Could I please ask that you set this back to the v15.0.0.89.202205241352 version, rather than using the "new" version that only works for a few very specific tablets? Setting it to v15.0.0.103.202208301443 basically locks-out the vast majority of people who are NOT using those particular very new devices, as it doesn't work with any other tablets besides those.

Why is the package flagged out of date? As I can see pkgver=v15.0.0.89.202205241352 is the latest.
