HI,

> I'm new to the list and I think I might stay for awhile in it. I want

> Questions:
> 1. Any idea if someone got this to work in Linux?
> 2. If someone is interested, I have the Fingerprint Datasheet and the 
> programing API to make a driver so that we all can use it.(I'm not a 
> dev) I believe this will not be the last IBM (or maybe other OEM) 
> laptop that will support this.
> 3. I'm also trying to make IBM send me the Datasheet and Programing 
> API to get the HD ASP working aswell in Linux. (HD ASP, the thing that 
> stops the HDD when is in free fall or sensing vibration)
