Are there any plans to get Thinkfinger authentication to work on
Jaunty?
On 8.04 it worked without a problem. On 8.10 it work as expected on
the console, but with gdm-authentication I had to push 'enter' . In
9.04 I could not get finger authentication to work at all.
But:
% tf-tool --verify
ThinkFinger 0.3 (http://thinkfinger.sourceforge.net/)

Initializing... done.
Please swipe your finger (successful swipes 1/1, failed swipes:
0)... done.
Result: Fingerprint does match.
So it is not a thinkfinger problem but the authentication
mechanisms.
Regards
Johann
