How to use Fingerprint reader in Ubuntu 19.10
I am using Ubuntu 19.10 in Asus X510UN. Using the lsusb
command I can't find Fingerprint Device, and it's even showing no device found
in fprintd-enroll.
I have built-in fingerprint reader in my touchpad.
Is your device on this list? https://fprint.freedesktop.org/supported-devices.html
I see a lot of elantech devices on the list that are fprintd-enroll supported.
Other options instead of fprint look like fingerprint-gui https://launchpad.net/~fingerprint/+archive/ubuntu/fingerprint-gui
Which supports these devices: https://fprint.freedesktop.org/supported-devices.html
Or thinkfinger which is only think pads: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Integrated_Fingerprint_Reader#Software_support
I have a Lenovo L380 and am still looking for a package that supports my Synaptics fingerprint reader. I'm kind of a newbie myself so I'm still learning things but that is where I would start looking.
