Please describe the issue in as much detail as possible, including any errors and traces. If your issue is a camera issue, be sure to also post the image generated by running sudo howdy snapshot.

Howdy cannot recognize my face.

Howdy installed successful. Add face successful. But it cannot recognize my face. When i run a howdy test, it always shows a red circle. How to solve this issue? Thanks.


I've searched for similar issues already, and my issue has not been reported yet.

Linux distribution (if applicable): Debian 10.9 (Deepin 20.2.4)

Howdy version (sudo howdy version): 2.6.1

You can look to the snapshots pictures with probability at /usr/lib/security/howdy/snapshots/

I had problems with the default howdy settings. Disabled those and put it into pam.d directly.

It seems that you don't use an infrared camera. (Your camera isn't in gray scale) Use an infrared camera is particularly recommended for facial authentication.

Can you show me the ouput of : ls /dev/video* ?
