Missing fingerprint drivers












0















I own a Clevo N151ZU laptop. Currently running Ubuntu 18.04.2 - kernel 4.18



lsusb does not detect my fingerprint reader.



I then installed Windows 10 to see if it will detect, and it does.



The driver name is:



Synaptic WBDI Fingerprint Reader USB 073


I tried installing the latest fprint version but still had no success. Has anyone found a solution to this?
