Fingerprint Scanner on T480s?
By Jessica Wood •
Has anyone gotten the fingerprint scanner working on the Thinkpad T480s?
I installed fingerprint-gui, but it just says "No Device Found."
I'm on KDE Neon (Ubuntu 18.04 base) with all the latest updates.

Fingerprint drivers were not released for linux. There are some efforts being made in the commnunity to reverse engineer the drivers. You can find the latest progress here: .
Try this:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fingerprint/fingerprint-gui
sudo apt install fingerprint-gui
fingerprint-gui -d
If you get any errors copy and paste in reply.
