hi

I bet this device is not supported in linux, yet wanted to probe and find out if anyone got this working...

Is there any hope of having this supported before my t500 is outdated ?

I would also like to know the status on this.
It looks like there hasn't been any development on fprint for quite a while. AuthenTec AES2810 logs have been published as far back as 2008.

See this page (http://www.reactivated.net/fprint/wiki/Unsupported_devices#AuthenTec_AES2550_.26_AES2810)
