Hello Florian,

Would you also be able to compile drivers for: Bus 001 Device 003: ID 27c6:5395 Shenzhen Goodix Technology Co.,Ltd. Fingerprint Reader

It would help me a lot!

Thanks beforehand, Francisco Nicolo.

Hi Francisco, I don't think I'm able too, since if Goodix provides any driver, they are typically closed source. These closed source drivers then tend to work with libfprint-tod. You can try their non-free driver from ubuntu (https://git.launchpad.net/~oem-solutions-engineers/libfprint-2-tod1-goodix/+git/libfprint-2-tod1-goodix/tree/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfprint-2/tod-1), which I use for my Goodix 27c6:533c, however I do not know if this works for you, since the Arch Wiki claims, that the fingerprint reader of the Dell XPS 15 7590 (which I presume you use) is marked as "Not working" (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dell_XPS_15_7590#Fingerprint_reader)

be careful with the goodix driver btw, libusb 1.0.25 had a regression (https://github.com/libusb/libusb/issues/1038) for me, that caused the fprintd service to segfault. Should be fixed with 1.0.26, that will land in factory in the next few weeks (https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/968291)

Hope you find something that works for you,
