That is in many ways not true. I'm a happy user of a fingerprint scanner on Linux (for login and sudo). It actually took about the same time to enroll as touch id. How the scanner deals with moisture depends on the model so it's not all the same. Lenovo x1 for example it's in my experience just as bad as touchid on that scale.

If you have the magic to make the BCM5880 work on Linux I'd love to hear it, because that chip is behind every fingerprint sensor I've tried to set up thus far.
