libinput-d...-tablet-pad(1)

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

libinput-debug-tablet-pad β€” bestie, this one debugs and visualizes tablet pad events ✨

So real quick, this lil page lives in the General Commands Manual section, and it's part of the whole libinput universe (more on that at the bottom 🫢).


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

libinput debug-tablet-pad [--help] [options] [/dev/input/event0]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so the libinput debug-tablet-pad tool debugs the values of the various buttons and axes on a tablet pad πŸ’…

This is an interactive tool, no cap. When you run it, it will literally prompt you to go interact with the tablet, and then it displays the current value on each available feature. It's giving "show me what you got" energy πŸŽ€

⚠️ Heads up bestie: this is a debugging tool only, and its output may change at any time. Do not rely on the output. Periodt.

Also, this tool usually needs to be run as root so it can actually access the /dev/input/eventX nodes πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ OPTIONS πŸ¦‹

If a device node is given, this tool opens that device node. Otherwise, it searches for the first node that looks like a tablet and uses that node. Like, it'll find the tablet for you, iconic πŸ’œ

  • --help β€” Print help. That's it, that's the whole vibe 😌
