oh great.. Who is the manufacturer of your Finger Print Reader? Can you say which version of fedora are you using. And in Validity Sensor's Website they have provided a Linux device driver for the device but it is in rpm package and i think this is reason it works in fedora, i tried to convert it to deb package using Alien, successfully converted but it does not detects or i am not sure whether i am using it in a correct way. -- Regards, Prasanna Venkadesh ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- PuduvaiLUG (puduvai Linux Users Group): http://puduvailug.wordpress.com/ FOSS Jobs all over India: http://fossjobs.in _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
