MX Modified - Latest MX KDE 5.22 Using MX21 beta

[markol]

Fingerprint authentication works in Plasma 5.24.2!

1. You need the latest Plasma build from Norbert's repos (see first post in this topic; just replace plasma522 with plasma524, and apps2108 with apps2112)

2. Install

Code: Select all

sudo apt install fprintd libfpam-fprintd

3. Open System Settings -> Users and click on "Configure Fingerprint Authentication...".
Add your fingeprints.
You may have to reboot if the button is not present.

4. Open /etc/pam.d/sddm and add to the top:

Code: Select all

auth 			[success=1 new_authtok_reqd=1 default=ignore]  	pam_unix.so try_first_pass likeauth nullok
auth 			sufficient  	pam_fprintd.so

5. Reboot


Works on my Thinkpad T490S

@norbert, looks like there's been something wrong with Kalendar on your repo since yesterday

Thanks, will trigger a rebuild soon. Usual thing.

[norbert]

Should be fixed by now

[markol]

Should be fixed by now

Indeed, thank you!

Looks like there's a bug in 5.24 (verified on 2 setups)
System settings -> Users
Clicking on user(s) does nothing. I can add new user, but cannot edit/remove existing.

Works in 5.23

Edit: here's the bug report https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=449385

This bug was resolved in one of the updates (probably 5.24.1 or maybe .2?) but it appeared again in the latest 5.24.3

@norbert there are problems with this last Plasma 5.24.4 update

Code: Select all

Err:4 https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/npreining:/debian-kde:/plasma524/Debian_11 ./ kde-config-screenlocker 5.24.4-1~np1
  500  Internal Server Error [IP: 2001:67c:2178:8::16 443]

and

(all files, not just this one)

[norbert]

Hmm, that is strange, but nothing I can really influence. I see the files at https://download.opensuse.org/repositor ... Debian_11/ and anything else sounds like a hiccup on the OBS side which I cannot fix (Internat Server Error).

[markol]

Well, it works now. Doing nothing fixed it :D
(sounds like my code sometimes)
