I recently got my hands on an ASUS device equipped with an fingerprint sensor . As a Fedora user, I’ve been trying to set up the fingerprint sensor on my system, but it’s proven to be quite a challenge.

So, I’m reaching out to the community here for some guidance. Has anyone successfully configured an ASUS fingerprint sensor on Fedora before? If so, could you please share your experience and any tips or resources that might be helpful?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

    The links you posted suggest there is no driver available for your fingerprint reader on Linux. If this is correct, you can’t use it, as without a driver the operating system doesn’t know how to communicate with the device.

    As a side note, apart from Android devices I’ve never had a working fingerprint reader on Linux.
