@grim_elsewhere@lgbtqia.space @HauntedOwlbear@eldritch.cafe Hey, I haven't tested the third generation yet. But I have the Artist 12 3rd gen in my queue for test, so I'll quickly see what's different from the 2nd gen (the Artist Pro 16 gen2 has now a FLOSS udev-hid-bpf).
My assumption for https://www.xp-pen.com/product/artist-16-3rd.html : stylus will be recognized plug and play as a generic Microsoft Surface: it will work (coordinate/tilt/pressure) but hardcoded 2nd barrel button to an eraser mode. Button on the frame will not work. (1/2)

@grim_elsewhere@lgbtqia.space @HauntedOwlbear@eldritch.cafe (2/2) if I succeed at making something (udev-hid-bpf rule) for my Artist 12" gen3 (future test after the 27" Pro (gen2)) , this model https://www.xp-pen.com/product/artist-12-3rd.html , maybe getting the 16 3rdgen to work will not be a lot of work on top of this driver; same number of buttons, same wheel on the frame, same generation. It might only require to add in the rules the address of the device (that was like that for the 14, 16, 19, 27 gen2 src: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libevdev/udev-hid-bpf/-/blob/main/src/bpf/testing/0040-XPPen__ArtistPro16Gen2.bpf.c#L11 ).
