xtrlock + fingerprint reader

Hi there!

I've searched throughout forums and  there seems to be nothing that could help me solve my problem.
If i'm wrong, please guide me to the right topic.

I've managed to compile and install xtrlock with pam.patch. Now I'm stuck with configuring it so instead of awaiting for password, it would unlock when fingerprint sample is provided.

Fingerprint reader is fine and it works with fprint.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Re: xtrlock + fingerprint reader

You need to edit /etc/pam.d/xtrlock(?) and add pam_fprint.so.

You need to figure out what service file xtrlock is using. Alock uses the same as login (which is quite inconvenient).
