From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Goodix Fingerprint Drivers (including 550a) - Found them! (github.com)

Out of frustration after hours digging and finding them, I want to share with anyone that needs them the working drivers for all the (ones I know) Goodix fingerprint drivers, usually found on Lenovo IdeaPad (like the IdeaPad 3 Slim) but also on other laptops.

The url contains all the info needed.

The debian packages have been mirrored from either Dell's repo and AUR backdigging.

It should be only for debian/ubuntu based distro but by extracting the .deb archives and copying the directory structure I am pretty sure they will work anywhere.

Anyway, issues and pull requests are more than welcome.

I did not find these anywhere else.

List of supported devices:

0.0.4

27c6:538c
27c6:533c
27c6:530c
27c6:5840

0.0.6

EDIT: Now the repo is also nice
