Hi,
What support do we have for fingerprint reading in openSUSE Leap?
My laptop has it, but I have no idea where to start (Lenovo L14).

I used this on my older Lenovo Yoga. It worked at that time. https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Using_fingerprint_authentication With my new one I haven't bothered. -- /bengan

I bothered now. It worked like i charm.
I would do a thorough search of the compatibility of the reader software and your particular laptop/reader model. In the past there were dire warnings about some models that write the hash to a separate security chip outside the BIOS not playing nicely with Linux -- at all. Glad to hear some models work, that's better than the last time I looked into it. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Had forgotten about that. I think I heard that a few years ago. Thanks for pointing that out.

That was also my previous experience. But when I got my previous Lenovo I finally got it working. -- /bengan

Ok, I will have a look at it, thanks :-)
I made a small "wonky" script to check if I/you have a compatible reader. myreader=`lsusb | awk '{print $6}' | xargs` supported_readers=`w3m -dump https://fprint.freedesktop.org/supported-devices.html` for i in $myreader;do echo $supported_readers | grep -i -o $i; done If you run it and you get a "vendor:product" then yours is also supported. Obviously you'll need lsusb, awk and w3m to run the script. zypper se -x usbutils gawk w3m -- /bengan

I don't have any myself with a lenovo yoga 530. But just a question to the people who knows: is the "fingerprint" reader human visible in lsusb or lspci? thanks jdd -- c'est quoi, usenet? http://www.dodin.org/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Usenet.Usenet

I don't know, but I don't see the wording "finger2 or "print" in the verbose output.

Unfortunately, it looks like it is that way. I assume your fingerprint reader is a circuit from Mantra Softech right? 1d6b. Closed source I think. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libfprint/wiki/-/wikis/Unsupported%20Devices -- /bengan

Ah. We are headed for success 😛 As a side note. I play guitar and I've been practicing a piece right now where my right index finger has been a little "dented". I couldn't unlock my screen for a couple of minutes with that finger. There is always a flip side to a coin 😛 -- /bengan
