The problem apparently [1] is, that the vendor has been super-creative and
assigned the same combination of idVendor/idProduct to completely
different devices. Oh well.

Remi, could you please check your device against the lsusb data provided
in bugzilla to check whether there is any possibility to distinguish these
devices, so that we could put some ugly check in place probably?

Thanks.

Hi all,

A belated thanks for having pointed me into the right direction to get my
barcodescanner operational. However, as a thought since the bug is still
present, why not solve it with something as simple as making the blacklisting
user-configurable instead of blacklisting valid HID devices on purpose?
Hi,

actually, my current plan is to remove the blacklist entry for this
combination of VID/PID completely, and let the user decide and unbind the
driver via sysfs eventually, if needed (maybe together with warning in
dmesg).

As the vendor apparently messed up horribly, as far as I understand, I
don't really see another option.
