Hi!. I just got another email from Validity Inc. Here is what I got:

>> SLED 11 SP1 is available this year for VFS451 & VFS471 on certain HP
notebooks.
>>
>> We're working on our own Linux driver for SLED, Ubuntu & Fedora and
we plan to make it available by April next year.
>>
>> It will support VFS301, 5011, 5111 and 5131 in addition to VFS451,
471 & 491.
>>

So let's see. It really seems that is a truthful Email. On the other
hand, Validity announced last year a driver for VFS101 on December 2010
that was never released.
