Comment 31 for bug 744310

Hi Andrej!

IT WORKS!!!! Amazing!

Great job! Thanks for the effort!

I compiled and installed. fprint_demo GUI.

So if anybody wants to give it a shot here is what I did:

I have Ubuntu 11.10 64bit

I have installed fprint_demo from repositories.

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 from the driver copy all the files:
libfprint/vfs301.c
and all the files on the other folder
cli/vfs301_photo.* (they are 3 files)

So copy all them on the libfprint uncompressed folder v_0_4_0/libfprint/drivers

Then in a Terminal apply the patch:
$ cd ~/v_0_4_0
$ patch -p1 < ~/Desktop/integrate_vfs301.patch
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
$ sudo make install

Restart the Computer

then test it try in a Termal
$ sudo fprint_demo (I assume that you installed from repositories)

Hope to see it in upstream soon!
