    For me, the driver was already installed, but I had to get and compile the latest one for a newer tablet. Also, I had to disable secure boot for the new driver module to load, then it worked well and could be configured via Gnome.

    The accepted answer worked for me as well and note that you have to restart your system. Tried on a wacom one medium!
