Does HUION K58 work with Ubuntu?

Question

So, I am planning to buy HUION K58 which is a pen drawing interface graphics-surface.

I just want to know does it work with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS without very much tricks? I searched google but I did not find anyone with this problem.

Answer 1

Yes, according to the DIGImend project the Huion K58 is supported in Linux kernel versions >=3.11 which is available in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (I am currently running 3.13.0-43 on Ubuntu 14.04).

Answer 2

I've just bought a K58 and it works perfectly with 12.04 LTS, providing you have up to date kernal (I have 3.13.0-74).
