@maddy apparently you can file an issue if you have usb packet captures…. but it does kinda seem like it doesn’t seem that high of a priority for anyone

@maddy @ielenia If it’s the same one as the T480s, it apparently works with open-fprintd/python-validity. I haven’t tried it though, since it’s not packaged in Alpine and I probably wouldn’t trust fingerprint unlock anyway.

i wonder if there’s something like that but for the broadcom fingerprint reader in some of the dell laptops
