It seems a little worse in hardy. For me, when the gksu just did not work when the PAM configuration was modified. No matter how many times i tried to launch synaptic from the menu it just would not launch. When I launched it from the command prompt using sudo it worked. I tried Uzahnd's solution of modified the finger print prompt to say "Password:". I can log in at GDM using the finger print or password and gksu works. However, sudo in the command line ignores the fingerprint reader when I do this.
