Hi!

Thank you very much for your effort, Unfortunately, this won't work for me. I'm running current Lucid.

My device is 147e:2016 Upek Biometric Touchchip/Touchstrip Fingerprint Sensor

Dmesg output:

[ 2321.822515] usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5
[ 2322.001860] usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

I've installed these packages with apt (and also gksu-polkit):

fprint-demo 1:0.4+git20080303-0~ppa1~lucid1
fprintd 0.0.0+git20090124-0~ppa2~lucid1
libfprint0 0.1.0~pre2-1~ppa6~lucid1
libpam-fprintd 0.0.0+git20090124-0~ppa2~lucid1

Then, I go to "about me" and I try to set up my finger, but nothing happens. I get the message "Swipe your finger again" over and over. Nothing happens.

The program fprint_demo says "Device ready for use" with the driver upeksonly. I press the "Enroll" button and I get the "Scan your finger now" dialog, but again nothing happens.

Then I try fprintd-enroll:

$ fprintd-enroll
Using device /net/reactivated/Fprint/Device/0
Enrolling right index finger.
Enroll result: enroll-unknown-error

Some thoughts? Thank you.
