Hi,
How can it be used in a non LDAP environment? After line 44 it warns "Make sure that SSSD service is configured and enabled."
But SSSD service won't run until a domain is enabled: SSSD couldn't load the configuration database [1432158246]: No domain is enabled
Which is no suprise in a home environment.
No idea. I got it to work for a while, but then updates broke it and I gave up on trying to get it to work again. Hasn't been an issue since I moved back to Arch.
Can you please add support for this model too? Bus 003 Device 004: ID 27c6:55a2 Shenzhen Goodix Technology Co.,Ltd. Thanks a lot.
If the driver in the Ubuntu repo supports that particular scanner, the same process may also work. Otherwise, there's nothing I can really do, as it's a closed source binary.
I have also this model can you please add support for it
