I can make it work by doing the following:
1. If you want to test TurboVNC 3.0 evolving, then modify the TurboVNC
Helper code in the dev branch as follows:
--- a/unix/vncviewer/turbovnchelper.c
+++ b/unix/vncviewer/turbovnchelper.c
@@ -396,8 +396,11 @@ JNIEXPORT void JNICALL
Java_com_turbovnc_vncviewer_Viewport_setupExtInput
break;
}
}
- if (ci >= devInfo[i].num_classes)
- continue;
+ if (ci >= devInfo[i].num_classes) {
+ if (!strcmp(devInfo[i].name, "Tablet alone Pen (0)"))
+ productID = rfbGIIDevTypeStylus;
+ else continue;
+ }
}

(No modifications are necessary if you want to test TurboVNC 2.2.x stable.)
2. If you are testing TurboVNC 3.0 evolving, then rebuild the TurboVNC
Viewer and Helper from the source code that you modified above.
3. On the client machine, create and run the completely_fake_tablet.py
script as instructed in the answer here:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/508612/simulate-graphics-tablet-using-libevent.
(I modified the script to pause for 60 seconds rather than 30.)
4. Using the TurboVNC Viewer (either the modified 3.0 version or the
stock 2.2.x version), connect to a TurboVNC session using:
vncviewer host:display -fullscreen -loglevel 150
5. Proceed with the other instructions that the script gives you
vis-a-vis launching GIMP.

Hello,
I would like to experiment with synthetic libevents, like what is done
in this post:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/508612/simulate-graphics-tablet-using-libevent
What it does is creates a fake event device, sends events with pressure,
so in a pressure sensitive application you can see the effect, whcih is
shown in the post.
This program works locally on the client machine, but not on the
turbovnc server. This might be correct I guess, because maybe you dont
want input devices on the remote machine to affect the turbovnc session.
Still, I would like to experiment with this. Is there any way to do it
that I missed?
