I work as a service technician, and recently switched to Linux Mint 19 Cinamon on my work laptop.
I have a konig barcode scanner that i really need to use, but it does not seem to work at all.
On windows it is plug and play. recognised as a HID device, and i can just scan with a press of the button, into a text editor/application of choice.
On linux on the other hand, it doesn't even react to a button press. so it does not scan at all.
dmesg:
