04f3:0c4b Elan Microelectronics Corp. ELAN:Fingerprint Not Supported. #105

Hey, I just got a new Lenovo Thinkbook-15 with the following specs as an output from uname -a command.

Linux thinkbook-15 5.11.0-41-generic #45~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 10 10:20:10 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux With a fingerprint sensor which seem not to be supported with most of the packages. 04f3:0c4b Elan Microelectronics

I went through the guideline in the readme file, but, failed to find a supported device when I run fprintd-enroll.

I took a sneak peek to the file prototype.py and found that my laptop's sensor is not supported.

I get the following as an output to lsusb command

Is there anyone who can help me with this?

Please let me know if you need more info. Thanks.

same laptop & problem here. It depends by the fact that this device is not (yet?) supported by libfprint. :(

I'm experiencing the same problem with Ubuntu 22.04 on my Lenovo Thinkbook 14 G2 ITL. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, this project was created exclusively for Validity (Synaptics) products. Unless it's some kind of OEM arrangement, I really doubt it will be ever supported by this project.

I follow that, and Im now able to see "working" my hardware, I use quotes because it works, it can capture my finger print... but it capture quick and it shows bad, then it causes an error...

I should to remove libfprintd as shows here: https://www.tec4tric.com/linux/enable-fingerprint-login-in-ubuntu and then install it again to see my device work with fprintd-enroll command RESULT:

List my device: goliapp@goliapp-ubuntu:~$ fprintd-list goliapp found 1 devices Device at /net/reactivated/Fprint/Device/0 Using device /net/reactivated/Fprint/Device/0 User goliapp has no fingers enrolled for ElanTech Fingerprint Sensor. goliapp@goliapp-ubuntu:~$

Actual error: goliapp@goliapp-ubuntu:~$ fprintd-enroll Using device /net/reactivated/Fprint/Device/0 Enrolling right-index-finger finger. Enroll result: enroll-stage-passed Enroll result: enroll-unknown-error
