Linux already supports a number of [1]XP-Pen drawing tablets while the upcoming [2]Linux 6.15 kernel is set to include support for another one: the XP-Pen Artist Pro 19. This XP-Pen Artist Pro 19 is a big, 4K resolution display drawing tablet that retails for nearly $800 USD and features dual stylus, 16K pressure levels, and a nice display for this 19-inch drawing surface.

Support for the XP-Pen Artist Pro 19 (Gen2) has been queued up into [3]HID.git's for-next branch ahead of the Linux 6.15 merge window opening later this month. This XP-Pen Artist Pro 19 support is similar to the prior 16" and 14" XP-Pen drawing tablets already supported via the Linux kernel and is coming by way of a HID BPF program.

So for those digital artists after a large drawing tablet with 4K display, the XP-Pen Artist Pro 19 is now another option that will begin to see mainline Linux support.
