I tried Ubuntu 22.04 and my fingerprint works, but there's a bug. In Windows, I can just tap my finger to unlock, but in Ubuntu, I have to swipe and sometimes the sensor doesn't read my fingerprint correctly and shows "invalid fingerprint." I also tried Ubuntu 23.04. My laptop is Asus with an ELAN fingerprint sensor.

  • Welcome to the Ask Ubuntu community. Can you please edit your question to include the model of your Asus laptop (to help others in the future with this issue). Also, please run the command lsusb and include that in your question, as this will provide the hardware ID of the fingerprint reader, which will help in resolving your issue. Thanks – richbl May 11 '23 at 16:31
