I'm trying to figure out how to set the fingerprint reader in my Thinkpad E540 as this is the only remaining component not recognised during the OS install.
Apparently the setup is quite easy and fingerpring-gui is working after doing an install from PPA sources.
But when I try to use the GUI, in the fingerprint devices dropdown list only appears:
No device found!
When I run lsusb
I can see a fingerprint reader listed:
~# lsusb |grep -i finger
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 138a:0011 Validity Sensors, Inc. VFS5011 Fingerprint Reader
As per some research I can't find a suitable solution.
I've double-checked permissions and it's not related.
I also executed fingerprint-gui
as root but the problem persists. See the screenshot:
Anyone with the same issue that could help me up?
