Hi.

Strange! If it saves on ~/.fprint, then I should have permissions!  
Must check this.

Regardinh running with gdm, I never worked with gdb, can you inform  
what will be the command we must issue to run it in the debugger?

About the scan images, I will try to post some images during the weekend.
