Framework 13 Ryzen AI 300 not detecting fingerprint sensor

[Jakob_Buis]

I just installed Ubuntu 25.10 on my new 13. That worked like a charm, but for some reason the fingerprint reader isn’t detected properly. I ran through all of the debugging guides, but it’s not even showing up in fwupdmgr as a device:

➜  ~ sudo fwupdmgr update       
Devices with the latest available firmware version:
 • System Firmware
 • UEFI CA
 • UEFI dbx
Devices with no available firmware updates: 
 • frame.work-LaptopDB
 • frame.work-LaptopKEK
 • KEK CA
 • Laptop Webcam Module (2nd Gen)
 • SBAT
 • WD BLACK SN7100 1TB
 • Windows UEFI CA

The power button works (as a power button). The white border light is on too.

Is that a hardware failure, or an Ubuntu-specific issue?

Details:

• Ubuntu 25.10
• Kernel 6.17.0-5-generic
• Framework 13 AMD Ryzen AI 300 series, model AI 7 350
• BIOS 3.04 (latest, came pre-installed)

A couple months ago I started with 25.04 and then upgraded to 25.10. Fingerprint reader works.

Same AMD 350, kernel, BIOS as you.

But it doesn’t always wake up from standby. Needs a reboot when that happens - just restarting the service doesn’t fix that.

This is my fwupdmgr update after the fprint reader didn’t wake up from sleep:

And here after a reboot:

If you can’t find it after a cold start, contact Framework.

I guess I’ll do that, as it has never shown on any boot, cold or restart.
