I have libfprint installed on my Fedora 14 i686 system, with Authentec AES
2501 fingerprint reader. The reader worked fine on Fedora 12 some time ago.
But, it mysteriously stopped working. Then, I reinstalled Fedora 12, tried
on Fedora 13, Fedora 14, and Ubuntu 10.04, but with no luck. However, it
still works fine on Windows 7 having Authentec TrueSuite software installed.
The problem is:
lsusb and usb-devces recgnize the fingerprint reader.

But, fprintd-enroll simply does nothing while I try to enroll. It gets stuck
and nothing happens when I scan my finger.
#fprintd-enroll
Using device /net/reactivated/Fprint/Device/0
Enrolling right index finger.
^C
Please help.
