Thanks @zenlian your workaround is perfect. I think it could be worth giving some warning or info on installation. I use systemd-homed and my home got into dirty state after installing, took me a while to find out huiontablet was the reason.

@ghbrown
To disable autodstart, I deleted /etc/xdg/autostart/huiontablet.desktop;
To change working directory, I copied /usr/share/applications/huiontablet.desktop to ~/.local/share/applications/huiontablet.desktop, and add Path=/home/username/.local/share/huiontablet (mkdir first).
These tweaks worked for me.

Well I deleted my /etc/xdg/autostart/huiontablet.desktop file to prevent the autostart, which worked. Still had ${HOME} issues after that.
I snooped in /usr/lib/huiontablet, but it doesn't seem that any bash scripts there do any obvious copying or creating of files. I see that they grab the PID, but I can't make out how it makes its way into ${HOME}.
After replacing the .desktop file I copied it to .config/autostart and tried setting the Path variable to define the application's working directory with no luck.
Has anybody successfully avoided autostarting and application files in ${HOME}?

@ghbrown I think it starts the app in the users home dir, you could probably edit the auto start file such that it starts up in /tmp and generates the files there.

Working great with H1161. And GUI is nice, much better than Windows counterpart.
ghbrown commented on 2022-06-25 22:56 (UTC)
Any ideas how to keep it from infesting ${HOME} with DriverUI.pid, HuionCore.pid, huion.log files?
I'm sure they are important for operation, but they should not be in userland in my opinion.

@MicaelJarniac auto start file is /etc/xdg/autostart/huiontablet.desktop, but I'm not aware of any command line arguments you can change to alter start up behavior
MicaelJarniac commented on 2022-06-13 19:31 (UTC)
Where can I configure the startup behavior of this application?
It's currently both starting up and showing the configuration window on login.
I'd like it to start on login, but only on the system tray, and not show the full configuration window. Sometimes it does start like that, but usually, it shows the full window.
I'm on Manjaro KDE.

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!!
