Testing this on my Dell Vostro 3700 with a VFS300, and installing the
drivers from https://launchpad.net/~fingerprint/+archive/fprint:
* fprint_demo lists the device as a VFS301
* Attempting to enroll fingers does nothing
* the program occasionally segfaults
What am I doing wrong? Versions below... dpkg -l "*fprint*" gksu-polkit
