Support for 06cb:009a for ThinkpadX1 6th on Arch

[newv-cell]

I have installed python-validity using yay -S python-validity, then used fprintd-enroll. This gave me list_devices failed
I have removed the open-fprintd and tried again stil the same issue.

Next, I did look at the issue, perticularly Can't enroll on Thinkpad T470 with 138a:0097 Exception: Failed: 0404 #136 but doing the the fixed mentioned on that issue did not give me any new result.

Any help is appreciated. Im on Omarchy : )

Hello, I had the same issue on Omarchy 3.0.1 (and on previous versions), and resolved it by following this:

1. reset fingerprint data in the BIOS
2. install Windows
3. setup one fingerprint in Windows (to initialize fingerprint reader correctly)
4. remove this fingerprint with the tool and instructions here: ThinkPad X1 Yoga 2nd Gen (138a:0097) - Fingerprint sensor doesn't work anymore (Arch Linux) #222 (comment)
5. re-install Omarchy
6. setup Omarchy fingerprint (Setup > Security > Fingerprint)
7. symlink pod2man with sudo ln -s /usr/bin/core_perl/pod2man /usr/bin/pod2man
8. install python-validity (yay -S python-validity). Answer y (yes) when prompted fprintd-clients-git and fprintd are in conflict. Remove fprintd?
9. enroll a fingerprint with fprintd-enroll

What a journey! But it now works.

Thank you! Finally I can use the fingerprint on this. Have you solved also when t480 suspends and the Fingeprint will not work?

Aha no actually. Was not aware it was a ThinkPad specific issue.
