I worked with Zebra on this and was able to get the scanner working by reducing the USB polling interval on the scanner to 8msec, the default is to poll every 3msec. I still believe this is a bug in how xterm accepts input because of the following:
A) This issue does not occur when accepting input as root. B) This issue does not occur on older versions of xterm (261 was tested) C) This issue does not occur when accepting input into other applications or windows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xterm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1499416 Title: xterm freeze when accepting input from usb scanner To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xterm/+bug/1499416/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
