Hello,

I want to learn how to sketch cartoons and I’ve been looking for a sketch pad that supports FOSS drivers/firmware. If anyone knows one please feel free to recommend. TIA!

    Are you referring to a drawing tablet? If so, then a good number of ones from the better known brands are supported by the kernel by default. Your safest bet though is Wacom. Wacom is definitely the best supported brand, but it tends to be more expensive than other brands (such as XP-pen and Huion). Non-Wacom branded tablets may require a little bit more initial configuration, like adding a udev rule (I had to do that for my Huion Inspiroy Ink).

      You can pick up the older pads really cheaply too. I got mine for about £20 a few years ago. It’s basic, but if you’re just starting out, it does what you need :)
