<title>Log in with a fingerprint</title>
21
<p>If your system has a supported fingerprint scanner, you can record your fingerprint and use it to log in. You must have administrative privileges to perform these steps.</p>
22
<p>First, record a fingerprint the system can use to identify you.</p>
24
<p>If your finger is too dry, you may have difficulty registering your fingerprint. If this happens, moisten your finger slightly, dry it with a clean, lint-free cloth, and retry.</p>
28
<p>Select your user name in the upper right-hand corner, then choose <gui>My Account</gui>.</p>
31
<p>Unlock your account using the <gui>Unlock</gui> button at the bottom left of the <gui>User Accounts tool</gui>.</p>
34
<p>Enter your password at the prompt.</p>
37
<p>Select the <gui>Disabled</gui> option next to <gui>Fingerprint Login</gui>.</p>
40
<p>Select an option for the fingerprint you want to register. You may choose your right index finger, your left index finger, or a different finger. Then select <gui>Forward</gui>.</p>
43
<p>Swipe the finger you selected three times at a <em>moderate speed</em> over your fingerprint reader. Each time the fingerprint reader recognizes your fingerprint properly, the corresponding picture of a hand will transform into a picture of a fingerprint with a check mark. After the third swipe, you will see the message <gui>Done!</gui></p>
46
<p>Select <gui>Forward</gui>. You will see a confirmation message that your fingerprint was saved successfully. Select <gui>Close</gui> to finish.</p>
49
<p>Now check that your new fingerprint login works. If you register a fingerprint, you still have the option to log in with your password.</p>
52
<p>Save any open work, and then log out. Select your name in the upper right-hand corner and then select <gui>Log Out...</gui>.</p>
55
<p>A confirmation message will appear. Select <gui>Log Out</gui> to confirm. The login screen appears.</p>
58
<p>At the login screen, select your user name from the list. The password entry form will appear.</p>
61
<p>Within 30 seconds, select the fingerprint button above and to the right of your name.</p>
63
<p>The fingerprint button is labeled with a picture of a hand. If the timer runs out, the button will disappear and you will only be permitted to log in with a password. If you want to try again, select the <gui>Cancel</gui> button and return to the previous step.</p>
67
<p>Swipe the finger you registered at a <em>moderate</em> speed over your fingerprint scanner. You will be logged in.</p>
70
<p>If you previously created a login keyring, it is secured by your password. To unlock it, enter your password.</p>
