Hello list users, I'm new to the whole fingerprint thingy. I have purchased a laptop and it offers this fingerprint reader (Some sort of EgisTek device, it is listed as "1c7a:0603 LighTuning Technology Inc."). I was wondering if maybe one of you guys have had the same problem than me. I first thought that the problem was randomly appearing, but I noticed a pattern. I sometimes use Windows to play some games, and I think there must be some sort of hardware persistency in the way Windows initializes the device, because every time I reboot to Linux, the fingerprint reader stops working. It basically becomes crazy, and thinks I am scanning my finger over and over again, while i just scanned it once.
I found this thread online, but most of the links they suggest are dead: http://www.reactivated.net/fprint_list_archives/2007-November/000159.html Is there anyone who could kindly point me to the correct approach for solving this issue please? Best regards, Pierre. _______________________________________________ fprint mailing list fprint@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fprint
