Wacom Tablets
The Standard Agent for Linux supports Wacom tablets in two configurations: bridged, where peripheral data is sent to the desktop for processing, and locally terminated, where peripheral data is processed locally at the PCoIP client.
Locally Terminated Wacom Tablets¶
Locally-terminated tablets have greatly improved responsiveness, and tolerate higher-latency (including 25ms and higher) networks.
For the best experience and most complete device support, use the latest available PCoIP agent, PCoIP software client, and PCoIP Zero Client firmware. To find out when support was added for individual Wacom device, refer to the release notes for your client.
Caution: Using Wacom Local Termination on Ubuntu Cloud Hosts
Cloud-based Ubuntu hosts may fail to properly handle locally terminated Wacom tablets. When this occurs, pressure sensitivity and other advanced features will not work properly. To correct this issue, follow this procedure.
The following Wacom tablet models have been tested and are supported with local termination mode:

Important: Touch is not supported
Touch features of Wacom devices are not supported with local termination.
Other Wacom tablets may work, but have not been tested and should not be used in production environments.
Bridged Wacom Tablets¶
Bridged Wacom tablets are supported only in low-latency environments. Tablets in network environments with greater than 25ms latency will show reduced responsiveness and are not recommended.
The following Wacom tablet models have been tested and are supported with bridged mode:

PCoIP Tera2 Zero Client |
PCoIP Software Client for Windows |
PCoIP Software Client for macOS |
