Thank you. I will give it a go.
I also made a search on google for ThinkFinger and found there is a fprint package that is supposed to work with my model (as reported on ubuntu forums): it seems to be able to use the aes2501 driver.

I have many things to try. I'll post back.

ThinkFinger is for the UPEK/SGS Thomson Microelectronics device not the aes2501. Take a look here,

Edit:

Also here,

http://thinkfinger.svn.sourceforge.net/vie...inger/README.in

"Toshiba is shipping their laptops either with the UPEK/SGS Thomson Micro-
electronics fingerprint reader or with a fingerprint reader built by AuthenTec.
The AuthenTec fingerprint reader is *not* supported by ThinkFinger."
