fingerprint reader (TouchStrip 147e:2016)

Hi,

I have laptop with this fingerprint reader:

Bus 004 Device 003: ID 147e:2016  
Device Descriptor:
  bLength                18
  bDescriptorType         1
  bcdUSB               1.00
  bDeviceClass            0 (Defined at Interface level)
  bDeviceSubClass         0 
  bDeviceProtocol         0 
  bMaxPacketSize0         8
  idVendor           0x147e 
  idProduct          0x2016 
  bcdDevice            0.01
  iManufacturer           1 TouchStrip        
  iProduct                2 Fingerprint Sensor   
  iSerial                 0 
  bNumConfigurations      1

I have also installed these packages:

libusb 0.1.12-3, pam_fprint 0.2-1, fprint_demo 0.4-1, libfprint 0.0.6-3

PROBLEM IS:
after running

pam_fprint_enroll

I got this:

No devices detected.

also, when I run

gksu fprint_demo

, there is an warning:

No devices found.

Can anybody help me?
