arrow Fingerprint reader support
     heard on Sat 18 May 24
The fprint project aims to add support for consumer fingerprint reader devices, in Linux, as well as other free Unices. Previously, Linux support for such devices has been scattered amongst different projects (many incomplete) and inconsistent in that application developers would have to implement support for each type of fingerprint reader separately. For more information on where we came from, see the project history page. We’re trying to change that by providing a central system to support all the fingerprint readers we can get our hands on. The software is free software and in the long term we’re shooting for adoption by distributions, integration into common desktop environments, etc. Both libfprint and fprintd’s source code is available through git, as well as released archives, reachable through their respective GitLab pages.
