I modified /etc/pam/common-auth: <snip> #fingerprint reader ... somwhat awkward ... #auth sufficient pam_fprint.so #auth sufficient pam_fprint.so #auth sufficient pam_fprint.so auth required pam_unix.so nullok_secure </snip>
Sometimes fprint would not succeed the firt time so I use it three times. It works perfectly with sudo on the cmdline and I think gksudo works as well. They do of course not tell you something like "please identify via fingerprint reader". They just sit there and you can try to auth with your finger ... As you can see above I disabled fprint ... pam lacking the flexibility to give you the choice of auth via fprint or passwort at the same time keeps me from using it. It is nice to hafe fprint auth ... but not at the cost of the way I used to auth. -- [Hardy Feature Request] Add support for biometric fingerprint reader https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187130 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
