I have no clue :-) You need special (usually proprietary) software to
use one in windows as we have one running on it. I did not even know for
sure that I could find one for Linux. As you may have guessed I am
testing Interchange as a POS system and since the whole premise is to
convert people to Linux (in order to sell my systems :-); I thought I
would see if anyone else had already tried to use barcode readers with
Linux. Thanks!
