[fprint] fprtind and PAM on wake from LID open

[Alexander Botev]

Hi,

So I have the problem that often after LID open it seems that fprintd does
not seem to respond to the PAM module, thus I have about 30 sec of no way
of logging in my session, which is a bit frustrating - I get the screen,
but no option for finger verification or password. After ~30-40sec I get
the password field finally, but note that fprintd has 10 sec timeout in the
PAM module. After putting out debug on I got this:

Feb 21 10:04:44 botev-ThinkPad-T440 systemd-logind[556]: Lid closed.
Feb 21 10:04:44 botev-ThinkPad-T440 systemd-logind[556]: Suspending...
Feb 21 10:16:06 botev-ThinkPad-T440 unity[2100]: pam_fprintd(unity):
timeout specified as: 10
Feb 21 10:16:06 botev-ThinkPad-T440 systemd-logind[556]: Operation finished.
Feb 21 10:16:06 botev-ThinkPad-T440 systemd-logind[556]: Lid opened.
Feb 21 10:16:32 botev-ThinkPad-T440 unity[2100]: pam_fprintd(unity):
get_devices failed: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the
remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy
blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was
broken.

Any idea how to fix this or what exactly is the issue?

Best regards,
Alex
