Hi Everyone, I'm trying to get a Metrologic Quantum IS3480 barcode scanner to work with my Linux box. It's supposed to present as a USB keyboard, but my system (and two other Linux boxes I've tried it on) seem to unregister it as a HID device for some reason I can't quite figure out. I thought it might be blacklisted, but I did a quick search in hid-ids.h but the vendor ID doesn't seem to be there... Any ideas? Here's the dmesg output when I plug it in: usb 7-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 16 input: Metrologic Metrologic Scanner as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/input/input13 generic-usb 0003:0C2E:0200.000A: input,hidraw3: USB HID v1.11 Keyboard [Metrologic Metrologic Scanner] on usb-0000:00:1d.1-1/input0 usb 7-1: USB disconnect, address 16 usb 7-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 17 and the udevadm monitor output: KERNEL[1289756866.849673] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1 (usb) KERNEL[1289756866.859563] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0 (usb) KERNEL[1289756866.859674] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/0003:0C2E:0200.000A (hid) KERNEL[1289756866.872800] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/input/input13 (input) KERNEL[1289756866.872891] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/input/input13/event7 (input) KERNEL[1289756866.872909] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/0003:0C2E:0200.000A/hidraw/hidraw3 (hidraw) UDEV [1289756866.873915] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1 (usb) UDEV [1289756866.874327] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0 (usb) UDEV [1289756866.874441] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/0003:0C2E:0200.000A (hid) UDEV [1289756866.874724] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/0003:0C2E:0200.000A/hidraw/hidraw3 (hidraw) KERNEL[1289756867.166734] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/input/input13/event7 (input) KERNEL[1289756867.216580] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/input/input13 (input) KERNEL[1289756867.216609] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/0003:0C2E:0200.000A/hidraw/hidraw3 (hidraw) KERNEL[1289756867.216703] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/0003:0C2E:0200.000A (hid) KERNEL[1289756867.216741] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0 (usb) KERNEL[1289756867.216834] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1 (usb) UDEV [1289756867.216935] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/0003:0C2E:0200.000A/hidraw/hidraw3 (hidraw) UDEV [1289756867.217063] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/0003:0C2E:0200.000A (hid) UDEV [1289756867.271298] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/input/input13 (input) UDEV [1289756867.303544] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/input/input13/event7 (input) UDEV [1289756867.303727] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/input/input13/event7 (input) UDEV [1289756867.303820] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/input/input13 (input) UDEV [1289756867.303965] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0 (usb) UDEV [1289756867.304191] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1 (usb) KERNEL[1289756870.808673] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1 (usb) KERNEL[1289756870.817600] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0 (usb) UDEV [1289756870.818662] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1 (usb) UDEV [1289756870.837532] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0 (usb) and the lsusb -v output: Bus 007 Device 017: ID 0c2e:0700 Metro Device Descriptor: bLength 18 bDescriptorType 1 bcdUSB 1.10 bDeviceClass 0 (Defined at Interface level) bDeviceSubClass 0 bDeviceProtocol 0 bMaxPacketSize0 8 idVendor 0x0c2e Metro idProduct 0x0700 bcdDevice 1.00 iManufacturer 1 Metrologic iProduct 2 Metrologic Scanner iSerial 0 bNumConfigurations 1 Configuration Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 2 wTotalLength 41 bNumInterfaces 1 bConfigurationValue 1 iConfiguration 3 POS USB bmAttributes 0x80 (Bus Powered) MaxPower 300mA Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 0 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 2 bInterfaceClass 255 Vendor Specific Class bInterfaceSubClass 0 bInterfaceProtocol 0 iInterface 0 ** UNRECOGNIZED: 09 21 11 01 00 01 22 3f 00 Endpoint Descriptor: bLength 7 bDescriptorType 5 bEndpointAddress 0x02 EP 2 OUT bmAttributes 3 Transfer Type Interrupt Synch Type None Usage Type Data wMaxPacketSize 0x0008 1x 8 bytes bInterval 10 Endpoint Descriptor: bLength 7 bDescriptorType 5 bEndpointAddress 0x81 EP 1 IN bmAttributes 3 Transfer Type Interrupt Synch Type None Usage Type Data wMaxPacketSize 0x0008 1x 8 bytes bInterval 10 Device Status: 0x0000 (Bus Powered) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
