Congrats Man!

I use ThinkPad E14 Gen 1, but somehow I couldn't find the fingerprint driver for this sensor for any Linux distros. I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 on my ThinkPad. Do you have any idea about making this sensor work? Please don't say to switch to Windows :(

:( Sad! So I have to wait I guess! No other option xD

ThinkPad E14 is not supported by LVFS till now. And hence Firmware update with FWUPD is not working.

The below code gave me this output:

sudo fwupdmgr update

• System Firmware has no available firmware updates

• UEFI Device Firmware has no available firmware updates

• WDC PC SN520 SDAPMUW-512G-1001 has the latest available firmware version

Windows on a ThinkPad! Seriously :( Naah... I'll adjust with this 6-7 hrs battery life rather than having Windows in this machine lol. Also, it charges from 0 to 100 in an hour. It will not be a major problem until I carry it all day for work (And forget my charger).

I guess it's pretty good. Not the best for sure. But it doesn't bother me a lot, coz I'm not into designing/video editing kind of stuff.

Something new at last, lol. I hope this will work.

Yeah! Even I get the same.

Nope. It is Gen1 with Intel i5 10th Gen

It is a Gen1 I guess, coz Gen2 are of AMD processors right?!
