Fingerprint reader not working on AMD Framework 13 on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS in c/[email protected]

I tried the script and it brings up a pam config menu. I accepted the defaults and it didn't work. I ran it again and enabled "Fingerprint authentication" and rebooted but no luck either.

My laptop shipped with an up to date bios of 3.03 and I've followed the steps to get on the OEM kernel.

I followed the guide for updating the fingerprint firmware, but can't get the device to be detected.

I think its because when I check fwupdmgr --version, the version for org.freedesktop.fwupd isn't changing from 1.7.9 to something older than 1.8.8 like the instructions say.

I am new to Linux so I may be doing something wrong, but was hoping someone had some ideas!
