I want a graphics tablet that's an actual mouse not some dumb gay snowflake software defined bullshit that doesn't work and doesn't do what it's supposed to.
I'm fucking sure this existed a decade ago so it must exist now, but I have no idea what it's called or who makes them.
To be clear, what I want is:
-a stylus that, if you press/hold one button, infers a pressed/held right mouse button
-a surface that, if you move the stylus near, interprets a mouse input to place the cursor in the corresponding space. If the stylus is touching the screen and the rmb is not pressed, a left mouse button will be interpreted as being pressed and held.
I don't want pressure sensitivity. I don't want configurable firmware or to be able to map the device to some screen and not another or to a window rather than the screen or to hook into graphics software or anything like that. If it's not possible to get a device where the RMB occludes LMB inputs, that's fine but a compromise.

What is a real tablet input device called that isn't dumb gay overengineered non-working nusoftware bullshit?
im too tired to read words but don't you just want a wacom idk what model

Not any model I own
I've got like three or four wacoms
they're pieces of shit that don't work for anything except pressure sensitive brushes in the one or two programs that have drivers for them on windows ten and not on linux at all
I don't want pressure sensitivity or software defined usage
Unfortunately I cannot feign the expertise of a loomis anon, but I appreciate their board is probably too dead to ask so I wish you luck in your quest.

I have an xp pen deco pro mid but only used on win 10. It's got a bunch of stuff you don't want so I'm not recommending it, but it pretty much works like a mouse clicker or at least that's how I use it. 
Press for left click. Press a stylus button for right click, but the stylus doesn't need to touch the screen for the click to go through. 
I also just realised it has a mouse mode which only considers relative movement of the stylus rather than binding to the screen, that's what you meant in op right? It's a little awkward to pull the stylus far enough away to reset it's position though. I usually just bind to a screen I want.
I got it for editing pixels in gimp after hurting my hands clicking pixels. I've even used it in an mmo for a click intensive quest turn in.
Maybe they have some cheap version for just using as a mouse but I'm not sure. This one's a bit big for just using as a mouse.

Well I just updated the firmware now and loads of stuff has changed. I just clicked on this reply box and a handwriting input box appeared and I handwrote the last line of this reply. It can also drag scroll web pages now. I'm tempted to start handwriting my shit posts from now on.

I could also test its software on Linux if any one is interested.

No, I'm saying the tablet needs to detect as a generic mouse and just pass cursor X,Y and lmb/rmb inputs. What you're saying about a mouse clicker is what I'm hoping for but I'm wondering if it exists.
>I could also test its software on Linux if any one is interested.
I'm interested in how it works with no driver installed. If you're doing a barebones install and aren't likely to have any sort of tablet drivers, I'd like to know if you can draw in gimp with the pressure NOT working.

I had some brief hope when I learnt the term 'OSU tablet', though I'm not entirely clear that OSU doesn't use pressure functionality in some way? Realistically, if I can get a "works on windowsXP" that should be a clear sign I'm onto a winner.
I've bought some weird fisher price version from some minor company on priority shipping (parblo ninos N7). Seems like the ninos are a 4kids line and you can get N4/N7/N10 without the side buttons and I've seen people saying that it works without the driver retard faggot shitmonkies complaining that it doesn't let you change line width with pressure, which is a good sign.
Unfortunately, they don't ship to me so I've had to settle for buying the N7 to see if it works. If this is what I'm looking for not sure how I'm gonna get my hands on an N10, but I'll probably buy a fat stack of whatever I can get so I have a supply for any amount of time.

Found a cable company who does do this (monoprice), that one should arrive first out of the two

Comes with driver on a CD, seperate manuals for mac and windows. Comes with AAA battery (for the pen) in it's own foam pocket. Uses a generic cable type but comes with a cable with a neat smooth-velcro reusable cable tie.
>Works on windows XP
Manual says not to plug it in until driver is installed. Plugged it in without the driver. Tablet light doesn't come on. No response.

For all intents and purposes it's a brick.
I feel like I've just experienced an as of yet unseen level of wiggery at work.

So I have the ninos
The good news is that it works out of the bocks on winblows and probably can be made to work with anything post ~2015 that has generic pen support. No RMB but the pad isn't a touchpad so you can drag your hand on it while drawing and it's fine, very nice.
The bad news is that it's detecting as a pen and doesn't work as a generic mouse so probably I'm going to shortly encounter a day where I just can't get it to do what I want. General use (portable) plug & play as a pointer is right out.

It's not bad and it's definitely better than the dogshit that seems to be the standard but it's still not what I was looking for

It doesn't work on lunix probably. I didn't bother to check.
I don't remember it working on windows until drivers were installed.

This stuff reminds me of those programmable usb sticks that are actually keyboards. If you plug them in they can do anything a keyboard can on the machine. Cool hack thing since it can open the cmd then do anything from there.
Maybe there's some niche mouse equivalent with a tablet interface but I wouldn't know.

Another swing and a miss, this time with a capacitive touch screen monitor
