Good afternoon!
I would like to install Fedora 42 on my Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15AMN7, but when I ran the live ISO, the fingertip reader driver was not identified, nor was I able to use it (I think it may be the driver, or lack thereof). Can you help me?

Boa tarde!
Gostaria de instalar o Fedora 42 em meu LeNovo IdeaPad 1 15AMN7, mas, ao rodar a live iso, não foi identificado o driver do fingertip reader, nem pude utilizá-lo (penso que talvez o driver, ou sua falta). Podem me ajudar?

Best regards/Atenciosamente,

Marcelo

Hey!

This is not so straightforward. However, looks like in your case it’s possible.

This is your computer’s probes:

This might be your fingerprint reader (you need to check it!):

some addition.
It’s all about libfprint, not Fedora.
Look for your USB ID.
