I just tried

Fedora 42 (a "live" USB stick).
It still works under Fedora 24.
Any thoughts?
I'd boot Fedora and try and figure out *how* the stylus works there.
e.g. which kernel/Xorg module handles it. Then try and see what
I have one of these X61T, which I haven't touched in quite a few years.
I'm pretty sure it used the "wacom" driver. I never tried running wayland
on it.
Web searches for "wacom wayland" turn up some interesting results.
Does the touchscreen work in Fedora 42 (when using
something else than
the stylus)?
I'm not sure the X61T _ever_ worked with something other than the stylus. I don't
remember ever trying finger touch on it.
Hmm... this website (
https://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/MultiTouch) says maybe.
