Hi Do we have anything so that I can stick a code in font of the camera on my laptop and it works like Android? Thanks, L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I'm not aware of any, but if you're doing a lot of scanning, you might want to use a scanner. They're cheap and convert the bar codes into a numeric string. The ones I used years ago connected between the keyboard and computer, but these days they should be using USB. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Sorry, I was thinking of bar code scanners, but QR scanners are also available. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yeah, I'm a bit stuck. On other systems you start the app and anything you put close to the camera 'beeps' if it has a qr. I've around 80 computers to adapt to be able to do this so I was hoping for a zypper one liner. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

No scanning, but could try http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dnh/openSUSE_13.1/x86_64/per... Could be somewhat automated together with scanimage ...

Hi Unfortunately, it doesn't work with any of the repos, e.g. with Yast: An error occurred while initializing the software repository.
