"it won't work" is not an error message: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855

Have you read the wiki? What have you tried?

http://uupload.ir/files/i5wk_screenshot … -57-23.png
i can run it as root but i want to run it under my account.
after instaling it sayed make sure your user is a member of "plugdev" group but i dont have any plugdev group

sudo gpasswd -a fouruhar plugdev
gpasswd: group 'plugdev' does not exist in /etc/group
how to make plugdev group?

Hello,
I faced the same error you report.
I have this figerprint reader:

Bus 001 Device 006: ID 138a:0011 Validity Sensors, Inc. VFS5011 Fingerprint Reader

What i did was
1 - install the fingerprint-gui,
2 - Create 'plugdev' group:

# groupadd --system plugdev

3 - Add my user to group 'plugdev'.
4 - Create this archive "/lib/udev/rules.d/40-libfprint0-custom.rules" with the following content:

# Device Validity VFS5011
ATTRS{idVendor}=="138a", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0011", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"

5 - Reboot.

Pay atention in idVendor and idProduct numbers that must be exactly those shown in lsusb.
