** Description changed:

- usb id 138A:0001 is a DigitalPersona fingerprint reader which doesn't get 
recognized by Ubuntu
- I think (although I'm not sure) all that's needed is to add this specific USB 
ID to a relevant list?
+ usb id 138A:0001 is a "Validity Sensors, Inc. VFS101" fingerprint reader
+ masquerading as a DigitalPersona fingerprint reader.
+ 
+ The wrong entry was submitted to the /var/lib/misc/usb.ids maintainer,
+ and we're in the process of rectifying this.
+ 
+ The libfprint0 driver does (probably) not support this device. 
+ The driver should be in the development queue of dsd <at> gentoo.org
+
