Hi,
I’m a teacher and due to the covid-19 pandemic i need to teach live online - mainly equations etc. I plan to use this tablet https://www.xp-pen.com/product/461.html unless you guys suggest something better. I just wanted to know, before spending money to purchase the tablet, whether i can share the tablet screen on my desktop using a software like Zoom.
Thanks.
For screen sharing with the GNU/Linux version of Zoom, yes, it works perfectly fine. Get the latest OpenSUSE .rpm from zoom.us and install.
For the tablet, I would check this page for supported tablets:
The XP-PEN Deco 01 is supported by Digimend, but Deco 01 v2 is not, however XP-PEN has been making drivers for GNU/Linux as of late:
I can confirm that the driver works with my XP-PEN Artist 15.6 Pro, though the driver doesn’t support tilt, which the Deco 01 v2 lists as a feature over Deco 01. For your application, teaching, it should be fine.
If you really want tilt (for paint programs), then look through this thread:

Good luck!
