Ok, then at least it's talking to the device. I had a user who had about
the same problem as you, it turned out that the particular device he
was using wasn't supported by the driver, when he tried another device
everything worked as expected. I can't seem to find his usb vendor,
device pair though.

If I remember correctly, libtfmessbsp.so only supports TCD41 swipe
readers.
