Alright, I think I finally got somewhere.
I can run img_capture successfully. I see two pgm files in my directory
that look like fingerprints.
This particular device can’t do the matching so it all has to be done on
the host.
I assume libfprint can do this?
I can’t seem to run enroll. This is the output I get:
This program will enroll your right index finger, unconditionally
overwriting any right-index print that was enrolled previously. If you
want to continue, press enter, otherwise hit Ctrl+C
Found device claimed by Validity VFS7552 driver
Opened device. It's now time to enroll your finger.
You will need to successfully scan your finger 5 times to complete the process.
Scan your finger now.
Wrote scanned image to enrolled.pgm
Didn't quite catch that. Please try again.
Scan your finger now.
libusb: warning [handle_timeout] async cancel failed -5 errno=22
Wrote scanned image to enrolled.pgm
Didn't quite catch that. Please try again.
What is:
libusb: warning [handle_timeout] async cancel failed -5 errno=22
Help would be appreciated, though I know it is difficult to debug other
people’s hardware.
