### Required Steps for Ubuntu 26.04
- **Verify Hardware**: Confirm the sensor is the Broadcom 58200 by running `lsusb | grep 58200` in the terminal; the ID should be `0a5c:5843`.
- **Install Legacy Library**: Download and install `libssl1.1` manually, as it is no longer in the default Ubuntu repositories :
```shell
wget http://nz2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb
```
- **Install Driver**: Download and install the Broadcom-specific fprint driver:
```shell
wget http://dell.archive.canonical.com/updates/pool/public/libf/libfprint-2-tod1-broadcom/libfprint-2-tod1-broadcom_5.12.018-0ubuntu1~22.04.01_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libfprint-2-tod1-broadcom_5.12.018-0ubuntu1~22.04.01_amd64.deb
```
- **Enable Authentication**: Restart the fprintd service (`sudo systemctl restart fprintd`) and enable fingerprint login via `sudo pam-auth-update`, ensuring **Fingerprint authentication** is checked. 
- **Enroll Fingerprints**: Use the terminal command `fprintd-enroll` to register your fingerprint, as the GUI settings menu may be unreliable for this specific driver. 
Note that because Ubuntu 26.04 is a future release relative to the driver's 22.04 packaging, compatibility is not guaranteed and may require further troubleshooting or community patches.
