It seems that the wacom driver does not support this tablet, however
'evdev' driver does support it, which seems to be why it works on the
Debian machine.

If I put in a manual entry in Xorg.conf

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier      "Huion tablet"
       Driver          "evdev"
       Option          "Type"                  "tablet"
       Option          "Device"                "/dev/input/event7"
       Option          "AutoServerLayout"      "true"
EndSection



...Xorg.0.log:

It shows up as if it is going to work, but it's not working yet.  But
no EE in Xorg log.
