Linux Drivers for Wacom

[BrownZeus]

Hey all,

 

I managed to find a refurbished Thinkpad Yoga with a 4th gen i5 for a pretty decent price ($250), and I plan to use it to replace my current linux box (Thinkpad x230).

My x230 is still in working condition but I always wanted a Yoga S1 because of it being lighter and thinner, and the newer processor. The S1 I picked up is the version equipped with the Wacom digitizer and pen. So I was curious to know if:

 

1) Anyone knew if there are supported Linux Drivers for the digitizer

2) Any recommended software to use for handwriting and stuff on Linux.

 

These details obviously aren't deal breakers given I paid the same amount for this s1 as I did on my x230.

 

Thanks in Advance!

There are some drivers out there.  Not sure if they will work with your specific equipment, but it's a start.
