So, my tablet: https://www.amazon.com/10x6-25-Graphics-Battery-Free-Shortcut-Pressure/dp/B077P6BQP7/ref=psdc_16034531_t1_B07VKB37HZ has arrived. It does work fairly out of the box, (and while made of plastic, appears to be of fairly decent quality) even though I can not tell what some of the buttons do. Thanks for everybody's help and suggestions. But, there is something that i was wondering how to get around, and if someone had an answer. So, the entire screen of the tablet maps to the screen of the desktop (monitor). This is kind of irritating, for instance if the xournalpp is only half of the screen. Not only does it mean that the cursor of the mouse easily switches back to the extents of the screen, but it also severely reduces the area in which I can write. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on how I can map the tablet to the area of the xournalpp window (that I also do not want to occupy the entire screen). Any suggestions?
