Bug Description

thinkfinger (http://thinkfinger.sf.net) is a driver for Fingerprint readers found mainly in Thinkpads, but also in other notebooks. Thinkfinger contains library, fingeprint acquiring tool and PAM module. As of today, SVN version of thinkfinger works with old PAM shipped by Ubuntu. I can login or sudo using my enrolled fingerprint. Gnome-screensaver do not work (I don't know why).
It would be nice to have this little tool packaged.

perhaps a modification in gnome-screensaver is needed: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.thinkfinger/92
