    Hello,

            I sent an email yesterday to this list regarding a problem I am
    getting with a barcode scanner connected to my PC through a keyboard
    ps/2 connection and under SuSE 9.3. I said that when my computer had
    redhat 9 this barcode scanner worked fine.

            Today I realized that (under SuSE) each time I scan with the
    scanner I get this kernel message on the logs:

    ... localhost kernel: input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard on isa00060/serio0

            Well in my previous emails I said that in order to track the
    problem I tested this barcode gun on several operating system and these
    were the results:

    ---------------------+----------------------
         Operating System | did it work?
    ---------------------+----------------------
             SuSE 9.3 | no
          Mandrake 10.0 | no
          Mandrake 10.1 | no
            RedHat 9 | yes
          Mandrake 9.2 | yes
         Windows XP SP2 | yes
    ---------------------+----------------------

            Since this, I think there was a change in the keyboard driver in
    the passing from 2.4 to 2.6.

            So I would like to know if it is possible to configure, someway,
    SuSE 9.3 in order to use this barcode scanner just like when I had
    Redhat 9 installed?

    Thanks in advance.
