Since I have Vista on this laptop, I couldn't get UsbSnoop working.
Instead I used an evaluation copy of usblyzer. I'm not sure if I've
done the right thing here. If this is not the kind of information that
I was supposed to gather, please let me know, and I'll try to do
something about it. I can apparently use this application for 30 days.

I'll attach a zip file which contains logs of
* cold plugging the fingerprint scanner
* starting the fingerprint application and closing it
* starting the fingerprint application, scanning finger 5 times, and
then closing the application.

The zip file contains the logs in .txt format, and .html format.

If this, in fact, is the kind of information I am supposed to gather,
should I open a bug report with these files attached? Or is sending
them to the mailing list enough?

Regards,
Khash.
