Hi Rex:

This has no effect. Leaving the password blank and clicking "Unlock" just
gives a password failed message, rather than falling through to pam_fprint
Here is the /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac file that works with gdm but not
kscreensaver:

I haven't had a chance to change my default session manager from gdm to kdm
yet, so I don't know if this one works. I'll try it soon and let you know.

On the ubuntu side, where kscreensaver works with fprint here are the
requisite files:
/etc/pam.d/kscreensaver:
# /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver - specify the PAM behaviour of kscreensaver
#
@include common-auth
@include common-account
@include common-password
@include common-session
/etc/pam.d/common-auth:
auth sufficient pam_fprint.so
auth requisite pam_unix.so nullok_secure
auth optional pam_smbpass.so migrate
