Fingerprint library, dbus interface, CLI, and PAM module for unlocking Linux with fingerprint sensors. Currently for Chromebooks. - ChocolateLoverRaj/rust-fp
An already working reimplementation of libfprint in Rust, supposedly easier to use.
You're viewing a single thread.
@boredsquirrel can you use the phone's fingerprint sensor?
I think that there's an app for that but Open-source means choiceSo you use the phones login method and then what? An app uses this and sends a message or key or whatever to the Laptop? Over bluetooth? Or USB? Or Wifi?
That honestly sounds like a lot of struggles, but could work.
KDE connect maybe?
@boredsquirrel over LAN*
It already exists & has many apps for winlol like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.andreimircius.remotefingerauth and already had an app for Linux but it died, got removed from the play store
I will try KDE Connect as soon as my WiFi gets fixedInteresting. That is a totally different use case though.
This library already makes fingerprint readers work on some Chromebooks.
