It works! My problem was that I had installed the fingerprint-gui package (from yaourt) that depends on libfprint, since, when I installed fingerprint- gui, linfprint be also installed.
I installed after fprint_demo from source code. Then I installed the patch $ patch -p1 < ~/Desktop/integrate_vfs301.patch $ ./autogen.sh $ make $ sudo make install but this did not replace the other libfprint (the lib from yaourt), then, when I execute sudo fprint_demo, it doesn't works. Why make install doesn't replace the other lib? THE SOLUTION IS: First install libfprint without driver for ID 138a:0005. (It's to compile fprint_demo) sudo pacman -S libfprint Now download fprint_demo (v 0.04) from http://sourceforge.net/projects/fprint/files/fprint_demo/v0.4/fprint_demo-0.4.tar.bz2/download uncompressed them. Now compile fprint_demo cd ~/fprint_demo-0.4 ./configure make sudo make install Now uninstall libfprint sudo pacman -R libfprint Now download fprint: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libfprint/libfprint/snapshot/v_0_4_0.tar.gz and download the driver https://github.com/andree182/vfs301/tarball/master uncompressed them. Now copy the files libfprint/vfs301.c cli/vfs301_*.* to the libfprint directory libfprint/drivers Then, apply the patch: $ cd ~/v_0_4_0 $ patch -p1 < ~/Desktop/integrate_vfs301.patch $ ./autogen.sh $ make $ sudo make install Now copy /usr/local/lib/libfprint.so.0.0.0 to /usr/local/lib with the name libfprint.so.0 sudo mv /usr/local/lib/libfprint.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/libfprint.so.0 then execute fprint_demo sudo fprint_demo and, IT WORKS! Is there another way to solve my problem easier? I mean changing the makefile or something. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/744310 Title: Fingerprint Validity reader devices [138a:0005] VFS301 and [138a:0008] VFS300 not recognized.
