      There is a goodix Linux driver for the following models:

      • 27c6:538c
      • 27c6:533c
      • 27c6:530c
      • 27c6:5840

      Have a look here for a Fedora37 Guide. https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/2500389

      Also fwupd does support the XPS range, I get my bios updates and usb dock updates through it.

          Dell provide a Ubuntu deb that can be modified for other distros.

          Arch also has it in the AUR

              You just extract the package and install it manually… It isn’t a complex deb at all. The hardest part is ensuring you have the libfprint-tod package.

              If you follow the fedora guide and alter it for your distro it should work as the guide is mainly about compiling.

              Also the deb should install on other derivatives as it isn’t Ubuntu specific. YMMV.

    Personnally, I will never enter my fingerprints on any device. Call me paranoid, I dont trust that system.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
