@Hadmut Danisch
AFAIK it's not erroneous, the compagny (Tenx Technology) has chosen to give all 
there products the same ID (that's the idProduct line from the output of lsusb 
-v) and since usbhid uses idProduct and idVendor to identify devices it has 
been blacklisted. 
I doubt that that will change, and I question whether it can even be called a 
bug in usbhid. After all the culprit is Tenx, for failing to adhere to a known 
and documented standard.
I might wish that the blacklisting in usbhid happened in a config file rather 
than in a .c source file. That way those of us that need such a device could 
white-list it at will. But I doubt I will get it anytime soon

@Bernd Schlapsi :
Doesn't work for me in Karmic Koala (9.10) seems that the usbkbd module is no 
longer installed in Karmic as I get:
"FATAL: Module usbkbd not found."

Does any one know of an alternate workaround, preferably how to get usbkbd into 
karmic without compiling it your self?
I have tried writing my own udev rules, but so far they all hang on the fact 
that I need the usbkbd module on the system.
