    The one on my ThinkPad started working when I upgraded to KDE 6 / Wayland. I was pretty happy about that.

      For me it only works for signing in after sleep, but not for anything else (T490). Does your Thinkpad work better/in more ways?

    I understand wanting to use this, but, fingerprint reader is so I secure I usually avoid it.

      Is it really less secure than a password? How so?

        Biometric data can be used as login but is unsuitable as password, since it can’t be changed once compromised.
