Automated post-install setup of Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04 on the Framework

Framework Laptop 13 Linux
101

Every time I try to run that it says command not found.

102

It’s not a command. The command to check fprintd.service's status is

sudo systemctl status fprintd.service
103

Running this script gives me the following:

<__gi__.FpiDeviceGoodixMoc object at 0x7f4e2bafa900 (FpiDeviceGoodixMoc at 0x55d8eb2cd1e0)>
goodixmoc
UID342C7CF8_XXXX_MOC_B0

(process:41848): libfprint-ERROR **: 21:22:20.129: parse fingerlist error
Trace/breakpoint trap

But I am also having the same issue as @Sam_Lane when trying to register fingerprints.

And here is the status of the frpints.service:

The fingerprint reader is the only thing not working currently. It isn’t a big deal, but I am curious about why it is having issues. I have been able to use it before when I had 18.04 on here.

104

The service log looks fine in your case. Something else is up. Not sure what. I don’t know how to interpret the sudo libfprint_delete_device_prints.py -d log. Maybe it has to do with “another OS claiming ownership of the reader”? I don’t actually understand that mechanism well.

Maybe this is related? Although you’ve been there before. Maybe in the past.

Ahhh. That makes sense. Sorry about that. Here are the results:

@Sam_Lane it looks like your problem is the same as @NullVoxPopuli . Check our discussion here.

Thanks! I’ll try it out!
