Finger-print reader: No devices found












0















I recently installed ubuntu 16.04 in my asus vivobook flip 14 tp410uar notebook which has an built-in finger-print reader. According to this Q/A I installed fingerprint-gui. But after launching the software it says




No Devices Found!




What to do now? I have tried other ways like installing fprint-demo. which also says the same thing. How can I detect my finger-print sensor?

    Not all fingerprint sensors are supported by linux. You can check what specific sensor you have by looking into lsusb output and try to search if some solution exist.
