Additional observation on 2026-09-22:

After booting the system, the GDM login screen did not show the option
to authenticate using the fingerprint reader. I nevertheless tried using
the fingerprint reader, but authentication did not succeed. I then
logged in using my password.

The relevant journal output was:

$ journalctl -b --since "30 minutes ago" | grep -Ei
'fprint|fingerprint|gdm|pam'

Sep 22 12:36:00 FortyTwo gdm-password][89345]: pam_unix(gdm-password:auth): 
authentication failure; logname=ft uid=0 euid=0 tty=/dev/tty1 ruser= rhost= 
user=ft
Sep 22 12:36:31 FortyTwo gdm-password][94891]: gkr-pam: unlocked login keyring

There were no fprint or gdm-fingerprint messages in this output.

I then checked the complete fprintd journal for this boot:

$ journalctl -b -u fprintd --no-pager -o cat

Starting fprintd.service - Fingerprint Authentication Daemon...
Started fprintd.service - Fingerprint Authentication Daemon.
fprintd.service: Deactivated successfully.
Starting fprintd.service - Fingerprint Authentication Daemon...
Started fprintd.service - Fingerprint Authentication Daemon.
fprintd.service: Deactivated successfully.
Starting fprintd.service - Fingerprint Authentication Daemon...
Started fprintd.service - Fingerprint Authentication Daemon.
fprintd.service: Deactivated successfully.

So fprintd was activated three times during this boot, and each time it
started and subsequently deactivated normally.

I also checked GDM specifically:

$ journalctl -b -u gdm3 --no-pager | grep -Ei 'finger|fprint|pam'

This returned no output.

This appears to be different from the previously observed failure where
the journal explicitly reported:

Device reported an error during verify: Cannot run while suspended.

In this new case, the fingerprint option was not displayed by GDM at
all, and there is no corresponding gdm-fingerprint entry in the journal.

The fingerprint hardware and software versions are unchanged:

- Laptop: Dell Pro 15 Essential PV15250
- Fingerprint reader: Elan Microelectronics Corp. ELAN:ARM-M4
- USB ID: 04f3:0c88
- Ubuntu: 24.04
- gdm3: 46.2-1ubuntu1~24.04.9
- fprintd: 1.94.3-1
- libfprint-2-2: 1:1.94.7+tod1-0ubuntu5~24.04.8
- libfprint-2-tod1: 1:1.94.7+tod1-0ubuntu5~24.04.8
- libpam-fprintd: 1.94.3-1

After logging in with the password, the fingerprint reader itself continued to 
work normally in the system.
