How to Install and Uninstall the Drivers on Linux Devices

Notice:

1.Please remember to close the command window and reboot your Linux device after installing the driver, or the driver will not be useful. After rebooting the device, you can access the system main menu to find the Huion Tablet driver and then open it to finish some settings.

2.If you are running Linux operating system on VMware, you must use the VMware Workstation Pro version. And the Play version of VMware Workstation doesn’t support the Huion Tablet driver.
