Thinkfinger and 8.10

[agentnixon]

I can get thinkfinger to install and acquire fingerprints sucessfully on my m1330, but when it asks for swipe finger, I swipe my finger, yet it does not unlock. I've verified my PAM configuration and everything. Did anyone else get the fingerprint reader to work in 8.10? It worked fine in 8.04.

It works but you have to press the ENTER key after swiping on the M1330.

there's a solution for the "enter" problem here: http://www.eastwoodzhao.com/ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex-thinkfinger-fingerprint-reader/
works fine for me... without the keyboard problems mentioned...
