Fingerprinter reader driver for Linux

I run Ubuntu linux on my x200s laptop and would like to use Fingerprint reader for logging into the machine. Currently Lenovo doesn't seem to provide linux drivers for the fingerprint reader. Is there a plan to provide the linux driver and if so, may I know when its expected?

Lenovo does not support Linux on its systems...You can go through thinkwiki.org and see if there is a work around

Card reader driver for Satellite M30X-134

Hello,
where can I find the flash card reader driver for my M30x-134? None of the support page seems to make it and i cannot find out who is the manufactor.
Thank you,
Patrick

Thank you for your advises. Unfortunately I still cannot find the driver. On the canadian site i was able to download some files called "SD Format" and "SD Driver Set", but Windows XP didn't accept them. I have in mind that this is a 6-in-1 card reader, so it should support more formats then the SD. There are two unknown entries in the Device manager, both are called "PCI FLASH-MEMORY". When i started the notebook for the first time (with OEM Windows XP) the card reader worked. Now i have an own license installed which didn't come with the notebook. Could this be the reason? Does anyoneone know who is the manufactor of the build-in card reader?

Hi @mfatihbodur
Welcome to the HP Support Community. I see that you are looking for Windows 8.1 version of your Validity Sensor and SimplePass software. I have included the links below but as your model doesn't have drivers I can't guarantee that they will work but they are the latest versions.

X60 fingerprint reader driver

Hello gurus,
I've installed Win7 RC on my X60 and all is well.
My colleague mentioned that Win7 has native support for use of a fingerprint reader, and I would like to try it out instead of using Lenovo's Client Security Solution.
I have a clean Device Manager now except for the "Biometric Coprocessor", which I assume is the fingerprint reader.
Any idea how I can get the driver for it?
Thanks,
-Michael
Solved!
Go to Solution.

not the Windows Update but "missing" Driver Update from Device Manager, anyway if its working there is no problem

Does HP SimplePass 7 works with the Authentec AES2501B fingerprint reader/driver?

I have problems running HP SimplePass 7.0.74.0 (or 7.1.5.9) on an HP DV6000 with Windows 7.
The fingerprint reader is an Authentec and I have the latest AES2501B driver installed (Ver 3.4.4.84)
When starting SimplePass, I get the error dialog:
"Program operation error. Please restart the computer and try again. If the problem still exists, please close all running programs and reisntall HP SimplePass Indentity Protection."
Note: SimplePass 6.0.100.276 works fine, but I'd like to update to the newer version.
Thanks.

There is a version 8, and that is available here...

Need Printer driver for F4240 on Vista

I've been using this printer for years with no trouble. All of a sudden, it stopped working. My system said it needed a driver. For the life of me, I cannot find one. The installation disk that came with the printer does no good. None of the HP assisting utilities does any good for locating a driver. Can somebody PLEASE help me? I don't have time to investigate, purchase, and install another printer. I need a driver for the F4240 now. Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

Hello , and welcome to the HP Forums! I see you're having issues regarding your drivers. I would like to help! Do you have any issues making a copy? I'd recommend starting with a power reset. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
I would also recommend downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor. Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

ICloud for laptop running Vista ?

Havent really done updates for a while or backed up my phone for quite some time (if ever), i thought i'd do the new update everyone is talking about & turn on the automatic upload of photos to iCloud to back them up.
I did the update to the phone, turned on iCloud on the phone, downloaded the iCloud software for my laptop for it to inform me that it is not compatible.
I'm running Windows Vista with Microsoft 2003 stuff & apparently can not have iCloud on my laptop.
Now, i'm not very technical at all, so please dont ask complicated questions .... but is there a way i can get this on the laptop so i'm able to manage the photos cause at the moment, i really, REALLY hate iTunes to manage stuff on the phone.
Having been an iPhone fan for a few years i've now got to the point where i'm fed up with the limitations & difficulty in putting stuff to/from the phone.
My old Nokia N95 was so much easier .... drag & drop. None of this Syncing but not able to move stuff about to the places where you want.

Having just got home & checked my laptop, i'm running Vista Service pack 2.
I've just tried to download the iClous 3.0 AGAIN & got the same, error message, can not run on this system.
PLEASE can someone help ?

Seeking a fingerprint sensor driver for hp dv5-1170el windows 8 64 bit!

Hello!
I upgraded an HP dv5-1170el in windows 8 pro 64bit!
I can not find a compatible driver for the detector footprints!
From what we found on the net drovebbe be the model Validity VFS101, correct me if I'm wrong!
I tried to install the driver for windows 7 64 bit fails!
I ask you kindly to help me solve this problem! Thank you very much!

Hello aki380. I understand you're trying to locate some Windows 8 drivers.
Unfortunately, your notebook does not have any Windows 8 drivers available for download.
Did you try to install the Windows 7 driver in compatibility mode or just regularly?
Also, is the device listed in Device Manager?
I'll keep an eye out for your response; have a great day!

Nomad jukebox zen xtra driver for use with Vista 32 b

Hi,
I just registered in an attempt to find a solution to using my Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra player with Windows Vista 32 bit operating system. Unfortunately, my old computer died and all was lost so when I purchased a new computer I naturally went with the most recent operating system, it never occured to me that my wonderful MP3 player would be considered obsolete (my various printers are all much older than my mp3 player and they all work just fine, my multiple?digital cameras too) anyway, I am running around in circles and I would not consider myself highly technical. I cannot download the latest creative firmware because without a driver my device is not recognized, and thus, creative will not complete the download since my device is not recognized...... when I go to microsoft to look for "nati've drivers" as suggested by Creative somewhere in the maze I have been stumbling through, the link I found in a search on Microsoft's website sends me to a creative labs link that...interestingly....no longer exists.... I sent an email to customer support, but they happily sent me a form letter stating that my warranty is out of date so they have no assistance to offer unless I pay for a half hour of their time in advance, and I find it odd that I should pay money to risk being told that they have chosen not to support this device, because if I pay money to hear that I will immediately hate this company, and I don't want to throw in the towel just yet, anyway, another option stated in the form letter was to use this forum, so I am trying really hard to state the circumstances of my dilemma in a fair and open way. It seems to me that with all the energy that was put into that form letter, they could have written a letter that would address this issue directly as I cannot fathome that I am the only one with this problem. So, per the suggestion of the form letter, I am here to ask if anyone knows of a solution to making a Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra work with Windows Vista 32 bit operating system.....if there is none, then at least I will hear about it without paying Creative money to tell me so. If I should post my request to a different thread/topic area?on the forum, that information would be greatly appreciated too as I have never used a forum before and alot of the information on this site is more technical than I am used to. Thank you to anyone that can offer some guidance or a clear solution. Signed by a baffled Creative customer....Dani

Try reading this thread. I had the same problem and the solution worked for me. http://forums.creative.com/creativel...a&message.id=7?

Validity Fingerprint Common Driver for Windows 10

Hi,This is a solution. You'll be able to use your fingerprint scanner through Windows Hello without any HP softwares (i didn't even try to use simplepass). I'm running Windows 10.Download and install:http://support.lenovo.com/in/hi/downloads/ds103635 I hope it works also for you

Thanks for posting this..
The driver is working for me on an EliteBook 8570p, though i did have to foce it a bit...
I upgraded from a Windows 7 install (not factory image) to Windows 10 and decided to try out the new build-in OS sensor support. On Win7 I didn't use it because it needed the HP tools installed and that was more bloat then i am comfortable with.. of course the problem is getting the drivers.. Windows seems to have installed a driver which is over 2 years old and doesn't even seem compatible with the OS fingerprint API. I'm not entirely sure whether Win10 is using the same one as Win7, but in any case, driver update didn't find a newer one which was compatible with the OS fingerprint features.
I downloaded and installed the version Lucadebe posted ( Removed link for error in link ). (Note that the installer does seem to dissapear all of a sudden, this is normal i think, it just adds the driver to windows, it won't actually update the device.)
I restarted, but unlike for the other people that wasn't enough in my case. The reason for this was that the posted driver does not actually list the VFS491 as a compatible sensor..
So basically i had 2 options:
1. use the driver (from lenovo) posted by the thread creator which is certified as Win10 compatible, but doesn't officially support my sensor.
2. use an older (but still relatively recent; a few months old) driver (from lenovo) which does support my sensor, but isn't certified as Win10 compatible. There are several versions to chose from here, although NONE from HP..
The first driver does list the newer VFS495 sensor (mine is VFS491), so i figured i'd force it and see if it works, rather than use a slightly older driver (also from Lenovo) not listed as Win10 compatible.
I went into device manager and opened the properties for the biometric sensor. On the driver tab i selected 'Update driver' -> 'Browse local dirvers' -> 'Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer'.
Next, because the new driver doesn't actually list my sensor as compatible, i had to uncheck 'Show compatible hardware'.
If you are using the HP provided driver it will by default have a driver selected from manufacturere 'Validity Sensors, Inc.'. They were acquired by Synaptics, so the new driver will be available under 'Synaptics FP Sensors'. I actually installed a number of newer drivers, but the one posted above should be listed as 'Synaptics FP Sensors (WBF) (PID=003d)'. Select it and click next to install..
After installing the newer driver, opening the Sign In options screen suddenly showed an additional header "Windows Hello" with a button to add a fingerprint...
So far, working like a charm.
@PeerOne: I would get the driver from the HP site with the right driver match... IF HP actually bothered providing driver updates. As it is, the only recent drivers for the VFS491 are available through lenovo. I have the HP Softpaq manager installed.. while the application itself got an update for Win10, the only 'driver' still being updated through it is the BIOS. Everything else is ancient...
I find that especially dissapointing because these are generic drivers provided by Synaptics.. the OEMs simply have to repackage them.. but even that's too much of an effort it would seem.
Also, considering windows 7 can upgrade itself to windows 10 in place, there are going to be a lot of people who will need win10 compatible drivers..
It saddens my that we have to rely on another manufacturer to provide us with drivers for HP products... Lenovo is still providing drivers for laptops that are older than mine, even drivers for newer operating systems..
Will definitely have to consider this when we have to replace our current laptops..

E430c laptop can't read driver for integrated camera

Hi Everyone,
I have a Thinkpad Edge E430c running on Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit and it can't find my integrated camera.
I've downloaded the driver from here http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds028647
When I click through to install, a warning pop up with the words "No Appropriate Driver to be installed".
I've tried clicking on the setup and it says "Can not find the device, Abort install!"
The camera doesn't appear on the list in Device Manager.
I've tried downloading the driver again and rebooting to no avail. I've been trying to solve this problem for many hours, and would appreciate any help.
Tired and close to giving up,
Cam

Good day and welcome to the community.
Sorry you're having difficulties.
One thing to check... Boot into your BIOS, select the Security tab, select I/O Port Access and verify that the Integrated Camera is Enabled. Note that the screens/labels may be slightly different, though, as I'm looking at screenshots of the E420 BIOS.
Regards.

Driver for synaptics touchpad - Vista 64

After I ran the Advanced SystemCare Free or CCleaner on my new Vista 64 Business, I started to got error message saying that Synaptics touchpad does nto work any more. After doing some research, I understand that both of the two programs will remove the synaptics touchpad driver.
I tried to re-install the driver, however, I could not find the synaptics touchpad driver at Lenovo website. Does anybody know where to find the driver?
Also, is there any way to prevent the driver being removed by either Advanced SystemCare Free or CCleaner?
Thanks.

The latest Synaptics touchpad driver release is available here. However, I would recommend you install the Lenovo touchpad driver instead. It is called the UltraNav driver. As you didn't post what model ThinkPad you have, I won't be able to post a link.
