Description
linux-id is a FIDO2/WebAuthn software token for Linux that stores private keys inside the system TPM 2.0 chip. It emulates a USB HID device via the kernel's uhid facility so that browsers detect it like a hardware key.
Installation Instructions
By default, linux-id uses pinentry for presence confirmation. To use fingerprint authentication via fprintd instead:
- Ensure a fingerprint is enrolled:
fprintd-enroll - Override the systemd service command:
systemctl --user edit linux-id.service - Add the following lines:
[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStart=/usr/bin/linux-id --auth fprintd
- Restart the service:
systemctl --user restart linux-id.service
