(Workaround for me:

sudo cp /opt/bios-checker/bios-checker.py /opt/bios-checker/bios-checker-de.py

sudo xed /opt/bios-checker/bios-checker-de.py

change product to Produkt, save and exit xed,

edit the menu entry for Framework System Details to the new python file /opt/bios-checker/bios-checker-de.py.)

Please update line 13 of file

/opt/bios-checker/bios-checker.py

In a German installation is must not be

cpu_info = subprocess.check_output("lshw -C cpu | grep -A3 'product:'", shell=True)

but has to be written

cpu_info = subprocess.check_output("lshw -C cpu | grep -A3 'Produkt:'", shell=True)

so a region or localization switch has to be used here. (I can't speak for a Ubuntu environment though.)

With kernel 6.2.0.34 the installation works well.

Install

- fprintd

- libfprint-2-2

-libpamfprintd

and you get

fprintd-enroll, fprintd-list, fprintd-verify and fprintd-delete .

It works well, I'm very proud of you guys!

Edit: I forgot pam-auth-update, see Owen's (Thx!) comment right below this comment.

It's a pity that this doesn't work with Mint 21.2 (6.2.0-26-generic)

on a Framework i7-13:

fprintd-enroll

Using device /net/reactivated/Fprint/Device/0

failed to claim device: GDBus.Error:net.reactivated.Fprint.Error.Internal: Open failed with error: Please update firmware using fwupd

The deb package can be installed, running FSD gives no output. Starting the python code manually results in:

sudo python3 /opt/bios-checker/bios-checker.py
