[Linuxwacom-discuss] Use Cintiq Companion 2 as a normal Cintiq?

[Lars W. <kn...@gm...>]

Hello. I've got a Cintiq Companion 2 DTH-W1310 that's beginning to show
it's age, so I've bought a stationary computer. Other than the slow PC
hardware there's nothing wrong with my tablet, so I would like to use it as
an ordinary Cintiq for the new computer. Is it possible with the Linux
drivers?

My Companion is running Ubuntu and the stationary computer is running Linux
Mint.

I saw a tip somewhere that you should put the Cintiq in standby mode and
connect the 2-in-1 cable (usb and display).

In Linux Mint it shows up as a secondary screen in the screen settings, but
nothing is displayed on the screen. lsusb doesn't report any connected
Wacom devices.

I'm thinking that either this isn't supported in Linux or my cable is
broken.

Any input would be appreciated!
