Relevant snippet from old xorg.log

Using Fedora 26, package: libinput-1.8.0-2.fc26.src.rpm
Nvidia proprietary drivers, so using X11, also.

My graphics tablet originally totally failed to work, detected but wouldn't
respond at all. Xorg logs showed that libinput was finding it, having a bit of
trouble, and then give up trying to load it. After some help in #fedora, I've
created a file at "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/52-tablet.conf" to force the use of the
xf86-input-evdev driver for the graphic tablet's chipset, which does perfectly!
I now just use xinput to calibrate the use to one of my screens.

But indeed, the issue is libinput doesn't handle my graphics tablet properly.
I'm happy to provide any requested logs or test patches, whatevs yo. Attached
is an old xorg log snippet from when the tablet did nothing.

The tablet chipset is "UC-LOGIC Tablet WP5540U". The actual model is a "TB-5300
Slimline Design Tablet".
