Biometric authentication

[Thiago Cavalcante]

Alan,

The ThinkFingler not work on my laptop. I installed via repositories,
via source code and other ways. The problem is not in application, is
Ubuntu kernel does not support the hardware, the application always
displays the message "USB Device not detected".

Thanks for the help
Thiago Cavalcante
