ThinkPad T480 fingerprint reader on Fedora Linux

ThinkPad T480 fingerprint reader on Fedora Linux

Background

The Synaptics fingerprint sensor (06cb:009a) present on my T480 is not supported by libfprint and fprintd as it requires a non-free binary blob. uunicorn created open-fprintd, a replacement for fprintd, that allows for loading of binary blobs. In conjunction with their python-validity driver we are able to make use of the inbuilt fingerprint reader. The following instructions were tested against Fedora Linux 35.

Installing open-fprintd and python-validity

sudo dnf copr enable tigro/python-validity
sudo dnf install open-fprintd fprintd-clients fprintd-clients-pam python3-validity

Obviously, in all the examples, you need to replace jira.example.com with your own domain! And (duh) you need to use your own password, not 1234

You need to have installed Java (outside the scope of this document). Then in your user's shell RC file and probably root's RC file, add
