I've got the fingerprint reader working on my Thinkpad and would like to just swipe to login. Is there a way I can have it select my login automatically so I don't have to select or type my username (the only one on the installation). I don't want to use auto login. Thanks.

Switch to a login screen with a user list. For example, this one: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=37395
At the login screen, just click on your username and swipe the finger.

Has anyone found an answer to the given question? I do have enabled the user list on logon, but I'd like to just swipe my finger without having to click on my user name (like e.g. Windows does)...
