Hm. #krita crashes whenever I try to use the Wacom powered pen input on my ThinkPad Yoga. I think that's only since I started using the alternative drivers, but that fixed the issue that touchpad didn't respond after hibernate... Any idea? #ubuntu1904

@TQ [Making sure] You know how to use the console / terminal to start something?

Open a terminal, start Krita from it (it should be just "krita"), reproduce crash and see if the terminal has helpful log messages.

@flauschFraktal I know how to do it, yes, but I didn't know I could gain insights that way! I've just recently switched to Ubuntu, and many details are not yet known to me. Thank you, will try!

@flauschFraktal Hm. I get some error messages, but that's with krita still running. And whenever I try to use the stylus as input, I get: "Speicherzugriffsfknow what ehler (Speicherabzug geschrieben)"... I don't that means.

@flauschFraktal Orr. "Speicherzugriffsfehler" that is.

@TQ Short version: It's very likely due to the driver
Long version: Probably because the driver did something very fundamentally wrong. Like trying to read memory that is reserved for the operating system (OS). So when krita uses that driver and it crashes the OS thinks krita did something bad with the driver and kills krita, because that's the easy way to keep the rest of the OS running smoothly

@flauschFraktal *sigh*
The other driver, the one I had previously installed, worked perfectly with krita, yet I wasn't able to use the touchpad after hibernate / sleep... There is no easy solution, right?

@TQ No.
Only thing you can do is to complain to both driver developers, about both of the bugs with the note that the other driver does not have the same bug. Sadly combining both drivers (without their bugs) is hard

@flauschFraktal Thought so... And constantly switching isn't an option either.
Thank you for your help!
