I just realized this is the ubuntu bug. The developer is not looking at
this one. The main one, is
https://bugs.launchpad.net/fingerprint-gui/+bug/745505 .

anarsoul is the maintainer of the libfprint. If someone has windows, please
provide sniffs. I used USBlyzer http://www.usblyzer.com/download.htm in
trial for this.
