According to comment on 2011-01-24 the bug fix was released. I am currently running and Linux 2.6.32-33 (Ubuntu 10.04) and the bug still seems to be present. I have tried 2 different Zebex scanners and some digits are consistently dropped. For instance a barcode "14010" yields "140". I have commented out the line "blacklist usbkbd" as mentioned earlier, but I still get "FATAL: Module usbkbd not found". Seemingly the best description of the problem, I found here: http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/LLXmLhi1jH9FherdyRBK - according to this page, the author recognized that all key events were present, but because of the sequence (or maybe speed) some of the events are not translated into characters.
