This is very disappointing. I'm running  a Lenovo Thinkpad T61.  The
fingerprint authentication works fine under MS windows 7.   I'm running
a clean install of maverick. I've installed think finger and followed
the instructions and am now presented with a password authentication
dialog box for the keyring. So I know the device runs under Maverick but
is not integrated into the system keyring. This defeats the purpose of
having a biometric login.

With biometric authentication devices becoming more popular on consumer
devices its important that they work under Ubuntu.
