Recently switched from windows 10 to Debian 12.5 bookworm since I have a unique setup (Nvidia 2070S GPU, 2 1080p monitors, Dell Canvas, and TV) and the default inclusion of Nvidia proprietary drivers and years of Wacom support have made everything workable (nearly out of the box!).
However, touch still isn’t great. It works well in Xournal++ and decently in Krita, but struggles everywhere else as a mouse input.
I’m considering hopping to Pop OS! once a stable version of their much anticipated COSMIC DE launches since I love the upgrades over GNOME.
Anybody running a pen display similar to the Dell Canvas on Pop OS! that can speak to it’s support for pen and touch input?
Your best bet may be to boot from usb and see for yourself how well your laptop is suppored out of the box.
I have a thinkpad yoga, and when using wayland (Fedora 40 Gnome), the stylus is unusable - it stops working after few seconds of drawing and I have to reopen the app. In X it works fine.
That idea of booting from a USB is golden.
