I am using Ubuntu 11.10. I went to the following URL to download the software Pam Face Authentication and downloaded the version for natty narhwall.
I installed the software using the following commands:
sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake qt4-qmake libx11-dev libcv-dev libcvaux-dev libhighgui2.1 libhighgui-dev libqt4-dev libpam0g-dev checkinstall
cd /tmp && wget http://pam-face-authentication.googlecode.com/files/pam-face-authentication-0.3.tar.gz
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:antonio.chiurazzi
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pam-face-authentication
cat << EOF | sudo tee /usr/share/pam-configs/face_authentication /dev/null
**Name:** face_authentication profile
**Default:** yes
**Priority:** 900
**Auth-Type:** Primary
**Auth:** [success=end default=ignore] pam_face_authentication.so enableX
EOF
sudo pam-auth-update --package face_authentication
The software installed and I can run the qt-facetrainer. But the problem is when I restarted my system, I saw that the default login screen is appearing where I should put my password to login. The webcam is not starting at all. And I cannot login with my face. Which means I think that pam face authentication programme is not starting at all.
Please let me know how I can login with my face using pam face authentication programme.
