Cannot Detect Fingerprint Sensor on Ubuntu 12.04
I installed software to use fingerprint login, but when I run it, It doesn't show it.
My computer is the Lenovo B570 Laptop. It worked on the windows 7 the computer came with, but it crashed. |
What is the make/model of the fingerprint reader?

Can you please put command outputs in code tags? It makes them easier to read.

I beleive this is the Sensor. I did some research and found out that Lenovo V570 Also has the same sensor |
According to ubuntuforums, people have reported this device to not have Linux drivers. This means that it is unsupported on Linux.
