Partly, I think you made that clear now. :-)

Already did that, the following section should match my reader:

----------------------------snip-----------------------------------------
The driver does not support the fingerprint reader with USB ID's 
147e:2016 found in some of the newer ThinkPads. This hardware is 
currently unsupported by libfprint. The device is believed to be a UPEK 
TouchStrip but the existing code does not work. It's not clear if these 
are newer revisions or whatever, as the Eikon devices (which are brand 
new) still use the 'original' revision.

It should be easy to add support for these other devices. We just need 
someone to run the closed-source UPEK driver on a system while logging 
the USB bus traffic. This is easy to do. Write to the list if you've got 
UPEK's driver running and are up for the task.
----------------------------snap-----------------------------------------

Therefore I herewith wrote to the list, suggesting the UPEK binary 
driver was at least realizing the reader. Perhaps someone can tell me 
what to do under linux to get the data you need for implementing this 
device.
