Description xavier.loup 2008-07-26 11:41:09 UTC
Description of problem:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 - system-config-display-1.0.51-9.fc9.noarch
 - pam_fprint-0.2-3.fc9.i386

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use a computer with a fingerprint reader
2. Configure pam_fprint (http://reactivated.net/fprint/wiki/Pam_fprint)
3. In gnome, go to System menu and choose Administration > Display
  
Actual results:
Nothing happens until you have your fingerprint read.

Expected results:
A message box should tell you to have your fingerprint read.

Additional info:
All other fedora system-config-utilities have the problem.
In GDM or in console, a message is sent to the user when he has to have his
fingerprint verified.

So, let's put blame where it beholds.

Thanks for your report.

(userhelper currently doesn't output any PAM messages until a prompt appears.)

if the bug is fixed change its status to CLOSED and not VERIFIED.

VERIFIED means that the bug is still present.
