I was just wondering what was happening with this, it would be really great for this to work.
Slashdot posted about linuxbiometrics.com, and I found this forum post there.

There is a possibility that a beta program will be occuring around August or Sept. this year '05. Keep your eyes (or news aggregator) on linuxbiometrics.com for the latest announcements.

Fingerprint reader hiccups
any body else notice that the fingerprint reader doesn't work very well or doesn't work at all if you have been using the notebook for sometime?
I'm thinking because of the heat generated from the hdd
HowTo :)
Disclaimer: This is how I got the fingerprint reader on my T43 to work. It can _NOT_ yet be used to log me into the system. Working on that,
get all required devel libs and tools (gcc, g++, pam-dev, etc.) I could not compile bioapi with the graphical Qt tools
- wget http://www.qrivy.net/~michael/blua/bioapi/bioapi-1.2.2.tar.bz2
- tar xjf bioapi-1.2.2.tar.bz2
- cd bioapi-1.2.2
- ./configure --with-Qt-dr=no
- make
then as root
- make install
beware that checkinstall will not work! go to http://www.qrivy.net/~michael/blua/upek-bsp.html and download TFMESS_BSP_LIN_1.0beta2.zip unzip it into a seperate folder, as it will not create one as root
- sh install.sh
- chmod 777 -R /usr/local/var/bioapi/
actually this depends on where you installed, if you did as i wrote, it should work otherwise you probably know what you're doing anyways :)
- touch /var/log/BSP.log && chmod 666 /var/log/BSP.log
- chmod 666 /proc/bus/usb/`lsusb | grep "0483:2016" | sed -e "s/Bus\ \(.*\)\ Device\ \(.*\):\ .*/\1\/\2/"`
now go to the folder where you extracted TFMESS_BSP_LIN_1.0beta2.zip
- cd NonGUI_Sample
- ./Sample
Now i hope it works, otherwise mail me: t43fingerprint@badcode.de
