<title>Log in with a fingerprint</title>
24
<p>If your system has a supported fingerprint scanner, you can record your
25
fingerprint and use it to log in. You must have administrative privileges to
26
perform these steps.</p>
27
<p>First, record a fingerprint the system can use to identify you.</p>
29
<p>If your finger is too dry, you may have difficulty registering your
30
fingerprint. If this happens, moisten your finger slightly, dry it with a clean,
31
lint-free cloth, and retry.</p>
35
<p>Click your name on the top bar, then click the picture next to your
36
name to open the <gui>User Accounts</gui> window.</p>
39
<p>Unlock your account using the <gui>Unlock</gui> button in the top-right
40
corner of the <gui>User Accounts</gui> tool.</p>
43
<p>Enter your password at the prompt.</p>
46
<p>Select the <gui>Disabled</gui> option next to <gui>Fingerprint Login</gui>.</p>
49
<p>Select an option for the fingerprint you want to register. You may
50
choose your right index finger, your left index finger, or a different
51
finger. Then select <gui>Forward</gui>.</p>
54
<p>Swipe the finger you selected three times at a <em>moderate speed</em>
55
over your fingerprint reader. Each time the fingerprint reader recognizes
56
your fingerprint properly, the corresponding picture of a hand will
57
transform into a picture of a fingerprint with a check mark. After the
58
third swipe, you will see the message <gui>Done!</gui></p>
61
<p>Select <gui>Forward</gui>. You will see a confirmation message that
62
your fingerprint was saved successfully. Select <gui>Close</gui> to finish.</p>
65
<p>Now check that your new fingerprint login works. If you register a
66
fingerprint, you still have the option to log in with your password.</p>
69
<p>Save any open work, and then log out. Select your name in the upper
70
right-hand corner and then select <gui>Log Out...</gui>.</p>
73
<p>A confirmation message will appear. Select <gui>Log Out</gui> to confirm.
74
The login screen appears.</p>
77
<p>At the login screen, select your user name from the list. The password
78
entry form will appear.</p>
81
<p>Within 30 seconds, select the fingerprint button above and to the right
84
<p>The fingerprint button is labeled with a picture of a hand. If the
85
timer runs out, the button will disappear and you will only be permitted
86
to log in with a password. If you want to try again, select the
87
<gui>Cancel</gui> button and return to the previous step.</p>
91
<p>Swipe the finger you registered at a <em>moderate</em> speed over your
92
fingerprint scanner. You will be logged in.</p>
95
<p>If you previously created a login keyring, it is secured by your password.
96
To unlock it, enter your password.</p>
