I also use an Authentec AES2501 sensor and have today made the switch to your PPA.
There have been no problems. Logging in, sudo-ing in a console, starting gksu-applications like synaptic, unlocking the screen - everything works :) The fingerprint reader feels more reliable than before, with less errors recognizing my fingerprint. Previously I had been using libpam-fprint (without the d) with manual modifications to /etc/pam.d/common-auth. But purging the package, commenting out my manual changes and running "sudo pam-auth-update --force" brought everything to the desired settings. -- gnome-about-me misses fprintd for fingerprint authentication support https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346083 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
