Fingerprint login option not available in Dell XPS 15 9570 Ubuntu 20.04

I am using Ubuntu 20.04 on a Dell XPS 15 9570 laptop and cannot see any "Fingerprint Login" option under Users settings. I have tried many solutions suggested by people online, but none have worked out.

Fingerprint option not present in Ubuntu20.04 in Dell XPS 15 9570


Looking at the information on Linux Hardware, the fingerprint reader can sometimes be detected when using Linux Kernel 5.12 or newer, but there is no (publicly known) driver available. Because there is no driver, there will be no option to use the fingerprint reader in the Authentication options.

As the current line of Kernels can at least detect the device now, hopefully there will be support for this reader added to one of the driver packages in the near future.
