If it's configured in some other mode, use the "MetroSelect > Configuration Guide" to change the mode (by scanning some special barcodes). > > > -- > Ondrej Zary Yeah, I forgot to mention that it's a barcode scanner. I reconfigured the device mode as USB HID keyboard as given in the Metrologic manual. Now the driver associated with it shows as "usbhid". But still when i scan any barcode i am not able to see any output on the console. Is there any redirection required? -- Manavendra Nath Manav _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
