@Sergio Cerlesi Thanks for you hard works!! I'm working under $ uname -a Linux Oreste 2.6.37-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Mar 25 15:10:00 CET 2011 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T9300 @ 2.50GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux with kde-config -v Qt: 3.3.8 KDE: 3.5.10 kde-config: 1.0
I have lsusb | grep Fingeprint Bus 004 Device 002: ID 138a:0001 Validity Sensors, Inc. VFS101 Fingeprint Reader (My computer is a Acer Aspire 8920G) All dependencies required for compilation have been installed. I downloaded: http://people.freedesktop.org/~hadess/libfprint-0.3.0.tar.bz2 and uncompressed it I donwloaded only the second patches libfprint-0.3.0-vfs101.v5.patch inside dir where previous tar file was uncompressed I applied the first patch: $ patch -p1 < ../libfprint-0.3.0-vfs101.v5.patch afterward I do everything in order $ autoreconf && ./configure && make $ sudo make install $ sudo cp /usr/local/lib/libfprint.* /usr/lib64/ $ sudo cp /usr/local/lib/libfprint.* /usr/lib/ Finally I've done $ kdesu fprint_demo Perfect it show my finger!! For the first time since I switch to Linux I can work with my fingersensor. BUT yes there's a but. If I close fprint_demo and relaunch it it show me : Status : No Device found. If I restart my computer : First Launch = device detected, second launch = device not detected. Version installed: fprint_demo 0.4-2 | libfprint 0.0.6-8 | pam_fprint 0.2-2 I don't know if this problem is due to fprint, drivers or anything else...
