This is fantastic! People have always been asking me 'so does the
fingerprint sensor work?' when they find out I run FreeBSD on my laptop
- and now I can tell them it does! Just tested with fprint_demo, but
successfully enrolled and verified my fingerprints no problem, using an
HP nc6320 and the aes2501 sensor.
