Public bug reported: Since a few days, the fingerprint reader won't work anymore (Dell XPS 9300, Goodix Fingerprint reader Ubuntu 21.04, Mutter). Notably it started happening after kernel 5.11.22 was installed.
$ fprintd-list Failed to get Fprintd manager: Error calling StartServiceByName for net.reactivated.Fprint: Failed to activate service 'net.reactivated.Fprint': timed out (service_start_timeout=25000ms) This causes long delays on the login screen and elsewhere. I could turn off the fingerprint reader pam, but I wish to keep using it. Journalctl -b 0 output attached. ** Affects: libfprint (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "journalctl -b 0 output" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1933633/+attachment/5506968/+files/fprint-log.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1933633 Title: Failed to activate service 'net.reactivated.Fprint' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libfprint/+bug/1933633/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
