Just contributed my first drawing-tablet driver! 🎉 It is for this giant XpPen Artist Pro 27 (gen2) I received (sponsored in exchange of a review on my channel). I adapted the existing specs of the 16" and 19" and it taught me so much, from compiling to submitting a MR. Everything now works perfectly on my GNU/Linux KDE Neon Plasma... Feeling accomplished! Review video coming soon!

Why Drawing Tablet Brands Won't Collaborate on Linux FLOSS Drivers

After investigation; Gaomon, XpPen, and Huion won't collaborate on open-source drivers because of outdated naming conventions. Here's what I learned from direct contact with their technical teams, and what I plan to do to move forward.

Hey, on saturday/sunday of this week (May 30th to 31th), I'll be at the "Torino Comics" festival in Italy, meeting the "Silly Studios" publisher on their booth (Zona Chiostro, Pagoda P10). If you are around, come to say a hello and get a signed and sketched copy of the paperback volumes of "Pepper & Carrot"!
See you in Turin!

A new "Exquisite Corpse" collab! This time with the artist @Gynux (left), and me (right). The theme: zoo/animals. Fun, fun on the Fediverse :fediverse: :blobcatheart:

My blog is back! I went into the logs to see the RSS code was the main culprit: huge and with 14K RSS bots hitting it over the last 10h.

So, I simplified the RSS because, meh: I was sending the full content of the article with 10MB of pictures and the code was dynamically converting the markdown to html, then html to special char, *each time* 🫠 hm hm, no wonder...

Now the website is back and up to speed, and the article received over 60K visitors, thank you!

Quick mirror of my article on my other server: https://www.peppercarrot.com/extras/html/2026-05-23_KDE-Neon-for-digital-painter-guide_mirror/ because my blog is in a overload situation, too many visitors, I hope it helps!
