Currently fingerprint unlocking does not work on KDE You can enroll a fingerprint but cannot unlock a session with it after installing `fprintd` `libfprint` To enable fingerprint unlocking, edit `/usr/share/defaults/etc/pam.d/kde` And place the following at the top of the file ``` auth sufficient pam_unix.so try_first_pass likeauth nullok auth sufficient pam_fprintd.so ``` (note this is for screen unlocking only currently, not logging in) Fingerprint unlocking should also work for polkit interactions but currently does not by editing `/usr/share/defaults/etc/pam.d/polkit-1` and pasting the same pam config at the top of the config will enable it. Therefore we should have `fprintd` provide a pam file that gets optionally included if it exists by the polkit and kscreenlocker pam files and we should consider including fprintd by default on the next ISO images.
Currently fingerprint unlocking does not work on KDE or for polkit actions You can enroll a fingerprint but cannot unlock a session with it after installing `fprintd` `libfprint` To resolve by creating the file `/usr/share/defaults/etc/pam.d/fprint` with the contents ``` #%PAM-1.0 auth sufficient pam_unix.so try_first_pass likeauth nullok auth sufficient pam_fprintd.so ``` Then in `/usr/share/defaults/etc/pam.d/polkit-1` and `/usr/share/defaults/etc/pam.d/kde` Paste `auth include fprint` above of `auth include system-auth` This enables screen unlocking in KDE with your fingerprint as well as authorizing polkit actions. If fprintd and libfprint are uninstalled, actions can still be authorized with a password like normal.
