surface pro 9 - pen not working, no /dev/ipts/ directory #1848

Description

@just-Smidge

my surface pen is not working at all and i think i am missing the /dev/ipts/ directory.
im using a surface pro 9 on arch linux gnome
ive got libwacom-surface and surface-control installed from the AUR using paru
a few months ago i installed the surface kernel and it worked fine but after today's reinstall it seems to not function at all, no light, nothing
im unsure if it is even connected at all as i dont understand dmesg enough to weed out what one might be the pen if its connected at all.
