lsusb -v output

Description of problem:

The fingerprint reader in current Toshiba B2B-models Portégé X30-D and X40-D (ad probably more) has a built-in FP-reader.
This device does not work at all. Likely no support exist in libfprint.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.7.0-5.fc28

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run F28 live or install F28
2. Go into user accounts management and look for FP-support.
3. None found.

Actual results:
Login with FP-support is not found in user account management.
This works well on older hardware.

Expected results:
Same FP-supported login with this hardware.

Additional info:
This is the output of lsusb:

We're not going to be able to do any more here. Unless you can reverse-engineer the protocol and write a driver, you'll just have to wait until somebody writes that driver upstream. It'll get into Fedora when that's done and tested.
