Description Mario 2016-06-08 17:10:56 UTC
I have a new Dell Latitude e5470. The fingerprint reader doesn't work and fprint doesn't recognize the device.

$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0a5c:5805 Broadcom Corp. 
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:5686 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. 
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

I am on Fedora 22 with libfprint version:
$ uname -a
Linux mariotuxbox 4.4.6-201.fc22.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Mar 30 18:30:16 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ rpm -q libfprint
libfprint-0.6.0-1.fc22.x86_64

I read the bug #56752 and I understand that there is no driver for my device, isn't?

I am available to buy and send a usb device for the development of driver (I am not a driver developer). Please tell me what you need and which kind of external usb device do you need.

Thank you.

I suffer from the same problem. Support for 0a5c:5805 would really be appreciated.

Thanks!
