I think the type for fingerprint-reader.fprint.driver should be string,
not bool.

I'm attaching a patch (against libfprint 0.0.6).  This patch also does
some cosmetics (less white spaces, one descriptive comment for each
entry).

Also, we should probably extract the driver names automatically to push
maintenance costs towards zero.

Danny, what needs to be added to the HAL spec?  You've mentioned
something about that in this thread some time ago.  If you have some
pointers I'm happy to provide a patch.

Thanks,

   Timo
