Re: [DIGImend-users] Digimend driver with multiple screens?

[Simon R. <dan...@gm...>]

Ah, this is very helpful Martin, many thanks.

I'm not familiar with perl, so it took a while to work out why
Data::Printer wasn't present and to make it so, and now it complains that
the Huion shows up as three separate devices!

Somehow, the script issues an error "Warning: There are multiple devices
matching HUION PenTablet", but that text seems to come from one of the
commands it's issuing, not from the script itself. I think when I find
that, I should be able to make things work.

Anyway, it's a great relief to know that it can be done at least.

Thanks again,
Simon
