Aktuelle Version vom 18. Juni 2025, 08:48 Uhr

This article contains my notes on how to customize the GNOME Desktop on Fedora Workstation.

Used Software Versions
Software	Version
GNOME	48
Fedora Linux	42 (Workstation Edition)

By default GNOME Desktop does not show buttons for minimizing or maximizing a windows as in Microsoft Windows.

They can be activated either by installing gnome-tweaks or via command line:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout 'appmenu:minimize,maximize,close'

-=== Enable Fingerprint Reader ===
-The following is tested with the software versions mentioned in the top of the article on a Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen1.
-Install the needed packages (these are installed on Fedora 42 Workstation by default):
- sudo dnf install fprintd fprintd-pam
-Check if service is running properly:
- systemclt status fprintd.service
-Erase old prints if needed:
- fprintd-delete $USER
-Enroll your new fingerprints:
- fprintd-enroll
-This command gives instructions, which finger should be enrolled. Enrollment will be repeated for up to 10 times.
-Verify fingerprint:
- fprintd-verify
-Enable authentication with fingerprints:
- sudo authselect enable-feature with-fingerprint
- sudo authselect apply-changes
-Verify:
- sudo authselect current
-After that on unlock / login screen there should be the hint below the password field: <blockquote>(or place finger on reader)</blockquote>If this does not show up, perhaps reboot.
