The most notable one mentioned was the fact that the 'fingerprint reader' would need to be in a constant 'on' status, and during various tests where this was tried out, a lot of those fprint scanner were reportedly overheating... It will likely be best to report this as a 'feature request' in the upstream bug tracker (I myself would care much more for broader support of fprint readers) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
