1 I have a 2-dimensional usb bar code scanner that I'm trying to get
2 working ( This is the exact one if interested:
3 http://www.barcodesinc.com/metrologic/ms1690.htm ). It scans, but
4 nothing gets displayed. How can I get the focused window/terminal to
5 understand that the device should be treated as stdin? The output from
6 lsusb and lsusb -D is below. Thanks,
