I was looking into it but I do not think there is driver support for the Goodix Finger Print scanner in Linux yet, and was being discussed here.

Run

sudo pam-auth-update

and enable Fingerprint authentication

I have found a code for Goodix fingerprint sensor. That code is mainly written for Android devices. I have tried to compile it for Ubuntu 19.04. This code would be helpful to write a new driver. This code is written for the SPI interface. It would be useful if someone can try to rewrite this code for the USB interface.
