Has anyone used a Bamboo Ink or Ink Plus stylus with Fedora?
Fedora 31, up to date. Lenovo Yoga X1 second generation. Trying to use a Bamboo Ink Plus stylus. I can pair it via Bluetooth, but I can't get it to connect after pairing. When I attempt to connect, the Bluetooth connection dialog window spinner runs for several seconds, then indicates the connection is off.
Any advice about things to install to support this device would be much appreciated.
If the Ink Plus can't be made to work, I can downgrade to the Ink. If anyone has a better suggestion for a full-sized stylus, I'd welcome that too.
The built-in Yoga stylus works fine, but it's not comfortable for significant pen work.
I don't know anything about the stylus. But googling "bamboo ink stylus lenovo yoga" suggests there are compatibility issues even with Windows. One hit suggested that the stylus has 2 modes and "Press and hold both side buttons at the same time for two seconds to switch between modes."
Something to try?
