Thanks

I dont really know as I am new to Fedora and Linux in general however the fingerprint reader in my Lenovo T60 worked perfectly after I installed Fedora 11. In fact pretty much everything on my Thinkpad just worked. My fans are a little flakey sometimes but thats about it.

Based on the following page, the X301 fingerprint reader is AuthenTec 2810 (confirmed in above lsusb output), and this is not yet supported by fprint:

Your T60 is a UPEK fingerprint reader which is supported.
