Hello,
For the fingerprint reader device, it's out of our current certification scope of this Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon laptop.
Therefore here is not the suitable place for this question, please go to the community e.g. http://askubunut.com or open a bug for it.

Other than that, you could give this https://launchpad.net/~fingerprint/+archive/ubuntu/fingerprint-gui a try.

BTW, I am not sure what is the "tactil zone" mentioned here.
Good luck.

Can you help with this problem?
