## Configuration

### Fingerprint

Some X260's come with vfs (Validity Sensors) fingerprint readers. If this is the case then you will need to additionally install [libfprint-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libfprint-git/), along with fprintd. See [fprint](/index.php/Fprint "Fprint") for details.

## Troubleshooting

### fn-4 sleep hotkey not recognized

Not sure if a BIOS level error or not. fn itself is regarded as an acpi wakeup event but fn-4 registers nothing, while working under windows.

### No audio from docking station

Kernel is already supported docking station after commit 3194ed4, but maybe not enable default, edit this file to enable it.
