Thanks for the quick reply Aaron,

Actually what happens when I press "enter" is the fingerprint reader GUI prompt appears and it recognises my fingerprint, but it does not authenticate me.

As soon as I press enter a message appears in /var/log/messages complaining that authentication has failed.

Best regards,
