I have switched to fprint (Noel, thanks for the hint), it works pretty
well on my DELL Vostro 1710, fingerprint is (from lsusb):

 0483:2016 SGS Thomson Microelectronics Fingerprint Reader

I have followed the instructions here:
http://reactivated.net/fprint/wiki/Pam_fprint.  Configuration is much
like thinkfinger.

Once configured, it prompts you to scan your finger, no chance for
entering password instead... After several failed attempts, however, it
falls back to password authentication. I wonder if there is any way to
change such behavior.
