Fingerprint login in 20.04

I saw an OMG Ubuntu article about Ubuntu offering fingerprint support. But I do not see any such option in 20.04.

Is it really possible to login using fingerprint scan in 20.04? If yes, how?


Solution 1:

What you need to do is to enable PAM Fingerprint authentication method.

  1. Issue sudo pam-auth-update
  2. Select Fingerprint authentication
  3. Press Spacebar
  4. Hit Enter
