Tech Help required with Wacom and Steam Deck. Commission ...
Hey guys, in the last Black Friday frenzy I bought a Wacom One (CPT133) and a USB Hub to connect them to my Steam Deck and make a portable digital art assembly more functional than my heavy Cintiq Companion 2 and its braindead Windows 10.
The Steam Deck runs on Linux, so I imagined that installing the drivers from the Linux Wacom Project would have worked, but it's presenting more difficulties than expected.
Firstly, the Deck's firmware is based on Arch and I'm a Ubuntu user, so I'm not familiar with the commands.
Secondly, I'm a Ubuntu user in the most basic interpretation of the term. I use it, period. I'm semi-illiterate when it comes to using the command line. I copy-paste the commands from the internet's guides whenever it's needed and that's it.
Thirdly, and most important IMHO, the Deck's firmware has some tweaks necessary to make it work as a console first, and some configuration files are different.
I link here to the post I've made on the Linux Wacom Project page for a detailed description of the point I'm at. Step one of at least two already done.
if you're savvy enough about Arch Linux to guess you can help me in finishing the installation of the Kernel and maybe also the X-Drivers, hit me up on Discord (#Rickleone6306.)
(Or also hit me up in the Notes)
I will reward anyone who effectively helps me with a commission depending on how much time and effort it takes. Let's say that a doodle like the one that accompanies this post is the minimum, and from there I will decide how much more rendering or extra characters the help deserves.
My usual nonos apply here: no gory, no dirty, no vulva.

lol @ the pic 😃
And yah, I get some of your pain. I use Manjaro myself (which is based on Arch), so any command-line stuff to download packages has to be "translated" a bit from Ubuntuese. I usually skip it and see if I can find stuff through the graphical interface first.
That said, I have zero experience with a Steam Deck or a Wacom tablet, so I don't know what drivers you'd need. There's a decent chance they're in AUR (the Arch User Repository) somewhere though, if not in the official repositories.
