I tried already with fprint but it did not detect my device and that is the
reason i posted in LUG.
Even i tried with libpam and it din't work. My device manufacturer is
Validity Sensor's Inc, and they have recently announced that their current
team is working for this driver to support in ubuntu operating system and
will be available next year. In the mean while am trying for some other
compatible drivers. Thanks for your reply sir.
