Activate Huion_tablets(WH1409) in linux Arch

Install in package-manager libwacom and xf86-input-wacom

Add in configuration file in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ folder with this as the content.

Section "InputClass"
Identifier          "HUION HV800 class"
MatchProduct        "PenTablet "
MatchIsTablet       "on"
MatchDevicePath     "/dev/input/event*"
Driver              "wacom"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
Identifier          "HUION HV800 buttons"
MatchProduct        "PenTablet "
MatchIsKeyboard     "on"
MatchDevicePath     "/dev/input/event*"
Driver              "evdev"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
Identifier          "HUION HV800 scroll"
MatchProduct        "PenTablet "
MatchIsPointer      "off"
MatchIsKeyboard     "off"
MatchIsTouchpad     "off"
MatchIsTablet       "off"
MatchIsTouchscreen  "off"
MatchDevicePath     "/dev/input/event*"
Driver              "evdev"
EndSection

That plus a script for configuring parameters of the tablet and pen using xsetwacom are all you need.
