[Thinkfinger-devel] Using thinkfinger 0.3 with gksu/gksudo

[Welkin]

Using gksu/gksudo in ubuntu Feist Fawn (7.04) with thinkfinger enabled,
crashed gksu/gksudo everytime I tried to authenticate. Changing the
string "Password or swipe finger:" to a plain "Password:" (like sudo
normally would do) in the file pam/pam_thinkfinger.c of the thinkfinger
source directory, fixed this behavior ( I'm using thinkfinger 0.3 ). Of
course in the Console you will then only see a "Password:" instead of
"Password or swipe finger:" but this is still more usefull than having
gksu/gksudo crashing everytime :).

Thank you! gksu works now. I can swipe again!
