Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libpam-thinkfinger

After resuming from suspend or hibernate, gnome-screensaver does not
recognize the fingerprint scanner as a means of unlocking the screen.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Set up thinkfinger and pam configuration to enable gnome-screensaver to use 
the fingerprint scanner to unlock the screen.
2. Suspend or hibernate, then resume.

What happens:
1. gnome-screensaver prompts for a password, with the text "Password:", and 
does not accept fingerprint scans.

What should happen:
1. gnome-screensaver prompts for a password or fingerprint scan, with the text 
"Password or swipe finger:", and unlocks with either one.
