I have being using Ubuntu since 2010. I like it since it's fast and free. I 
went back to school last year and most of my class are adobe products. Last 
fall I bought a drawing tablet, it works great on windows but I don't like 
windows and apple machines are out my budget. I install Ubuntu 17.04 and it was 
a complete challenge getting the Nvidia card working. I have being looking for 
drivers for my tablet display but Ubuntu only has Wacom tablet and i could only 
afford a Chinese version xp-pen tablet display 22". I really appreciate any 
suggestions to solve this issue. Does anyone knows why it is so difficult to 
install video card and displays. Ubuntu used to recognize everything.
