Solved: 

Now using 0.3 but this should work for older version.

OS: Fedora 11 64bit
insert to /etc/pam.d/gdm-password

auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_face_authentication.so enableX

the full path is needed because with 64bit arch  the default path is 
/lib64/security

Alright. :)

But did the enableX option work for you ?  Did you get a video feed back while
logging in ?

Yes every thing as expected.
Just sometimes to fast :) May want to consider a very short pause or 
notification in
the video window.

But It is awesome, I am going to try and package it for fedora, and see if it 
can be
included in the repos.
