The one on my ThinkPad started working when I upgraded to KDE 6 / Wayland. I was pretty happy about that.

Oh nice, I have a Carbon X1. I knew that fprintd has worked for a while, and has allowed me to enroll fingerprints, but has never successfully worked for authentication.

That was my issue too, also on an X1C (gen 9)
