So, I just noticed in my latest pictures that I have uploaded, there is this strange distortion effect that seems to exclusively happen on Bluesky and seems to only start happening ever since I moved to Linux Mint? 🤨

So, I have been a bit stuck on Dahlia's redesign, as I'd like to push more on the witch inspiration. What do you think?

IRL is demanding a lot of my time and I'm having a hard time adapting to linux+krita, but I'm still working on stuff. Also, Ciel and the gang are getting some updates on their designs.

The only thing that varies is how to install Wine and Bottles depending on your distro, and maybe having to download a different version if you are not on CSP4.0, but it's still really intuitive. I still need to test it further, though, but so far, it works.

With some work you can probably set it up to function almost identical to windows, but since it binds to keyboard and mouse presses instead of in-app actions and menus like in Win/Mac, you need some time to smooth it out.

The good thing is that it supports all models, haptic feedback and it allows for A LOT of customization. The bad is that it can be a bit confusing to set up as a newbie such as myself and certain functions (like app-profiles) depend a lot on your Linux setup.

The unofficial Tourbox driver works way better than I expected but I'll have to spend a while to manually set up my configuration because there are issues with certain key combinations.

Also I cannot use it on bluetooth or it makes a huge stink, but I'm in no position to complain...

So after a lot of work:

-Linux Mint Installed.
-Steam, Krita and my XP-Pen tablet work great.
-Managed to get CSP working using Wine and Bottles.
-Needed to make a lot of adjustments due to my dual monitor setup.
-Tourbox is workable but with a lot of issues.

The method works pretty well, actually! I've managed to install and run CSP, but it still has some issues (Tablet pressure goes on and off and requires restarting at times.) I've managed to download custom brushes and save files too. Thank you so much!

I will try if everything else fails, but I've already decided to move to Linux. This was basically the straw that broke the camel's back. ☹️

Woah! Thank you! That should come handy! I am definitely trying this ASAP! 😁

Tourbox has an unofficial driver, but set up can be a bit tough as a newbie.

CSP works on Wine but it looks like some features require quite a few workarounds.🥲

Other options require VM-like approaches and I don't have the RAM for that.

I am probably using Krita but I'll need to relearn it.

I will have to figure out how to work with this because moving means I am going to lose access to both CSP and my Tourbox... So updates are going to be slow...🫤

I have decided to install Windows 11.

And by "decided to install", I mean Microsoft forced the update down my throat and left me no option but to install it.

You guys want me to move to Linux that badly, huh? So be it.

I think the dev did a great job, but I'm still too hesitant to make the jump... I feel like if anything fails, I will have to do this all over again...

And yeah... It sucks because this leaves us stuck into either buying an overpriced Mac or having to submit to Microsoft's bullshit.

Yeah, this is the one. I actually did manage to eventually get it running after taking me the whole day, but the GUI still won't save any changes and I need to manually configure the files and restart the driver to change the settings...

I'll keep Mint on my laptop, since I usually only use it for simple stuff, but I need to figure out what am I going to do with my desktop...

I could dual boot, but the idea was to get rid of windows as much as possible...

It is a shame because I was legitimately enjoying the OS. There is no bloat, no unnecessary slowdowns, no ads. And the kind of games I tend to play work really well... But setting up certain stuff is fucking hell. I can renounce to CSP, but can't do the same for my ergonomy...

My adventure with Linux Mint is... not starting on a good foot. I've discovered there is no official linux support for my TourBox Elite Pro. The only unofficial driver I have found won't even start.

This is a deal breaker.

Happy new year! I wanted to make something for a community of artists who all agree on one thing. Robot girls are pretty neat!

...It is thanks to all of you that I made it this far and I want to keep trying. I will try my best this 2026, and I hope one day, I will be able to become an artist who you can be proud of.

My best wishes for all of you and I'll see you next year!
