Hi @Matt_Hartley,
I received an email with a question from you but I cannot find the comment anywhere, so I will respond here. Your question was regarding the followed steps from the guide. To confirm; yes I followed the following steps, in the following order:
sudo dnf upgrade
Install the needed packages:
sudo dnf install fprintd fprintd-pam
(though they were already installed)
systemctl enable fprintd.service
then
systemctl start fprintd.service
These steps created the error referenced in the first post. After tweaking /usr/lib/systemd/system/fprintd.service I reran the enable
and start
commands without error.
Something I left out in the post, is that I also tried a full fresh re-install from USB. As well as removing and reinstalling fprintd & fprintd-pam. This didn’t solve it.
The only issue that persisted after the added steps was the verify
command removing all enrolled prints after a mismatch. Before enabling fprintd.service the same thing happened on the login a couple times. I have not tried the verify
command since my successful verification, let me know if you want me to try to get a mismatch to reproduce the issue.
BTW: can you add a [SOLVED] tag to the title, if you deem it so? I don’t think I have the permissions.
If you have any other questions, let me know.
