[fprint] 1-n matching?

Thanks to both of you! :-)

However, I don't seem to have fprint-identity installed:


root at Zotac:~# fprintd-
fprintd-delete  fprintd-enroll  fprintd-list    fprintd-verify



Which reader do you regard as the premium one?

Right now I am using a Digital Persona 4000 but it more often than not
cannot match the user.
In this case, 15 mismatches and 5 correct matches.

See below.

I guess the reader is just of a too poor quality and would like to buy a
good one instead.

Regards,
Jimmy
