I followed a guide to enable disk encryption together with setting up snapper for snapshots and during the process a very basic installation of Fedora 39 is installed for you to then carry on and install what you want.
I’ve followed a couple of guides here and used the appimage tool to clear previously registered fingerprints and I can get the fingerprint reader working and registering fingerprints but for some reason all the settings get lost following a reboot or waking up from sleep.
The fingerprint app within gnome settings shows as disabled and no fingerprints registered, however I definitely had it working about 30 minutes before.
This worked perfectly with a regular install from a LiveUSB so I’m either definitely missing a setting somewhere or a package isn’t installed following this minimal install.
I’ve realised that its due to the snapper rollback - /var/lib/fprint where the fingerprints are stored isn’t excluded when rolling back snapshots and therefore the contents is lost each time.
I’m trying to figure out what I need to do to exclude this - nothing wrong with the install or a missing service etc, its down to how the snapshots are working.
