@Askannz, just wanted to say thanks for the update, it's working just fine for me thank you.

Updated, thanks everyone for your patience.

While waiting for the maintainer to update, it is possible to build v41 :

I've dropped pam-arch support as the patch does not work with v41 (I think it only usefull if you have a fingerprint reader).

I took a chance and updated to Gnome 41 with gdm-prime and libgdm-prime not being updated yet to properly support Gnome 41 and I am happy to report it still works on my end, haven't seen any issues on my Acer Aspire E5-576.

On asus-flow-x13 auto-attempts to login with the fingerprint, resulting in continuous errors. If one don't type his password real fast, will get banned from login for 10 minutes.

That behaviour was not present with default gdm package.

Arch Linux kernel 5.14

Just for info: I just updated to Gnome 41, and the 40.0-1 package (+libgdm-prime) still seems to work with it.

Will this be updated to support Gnome 41 which was just released on Sept 22?

any gentoo support please?

I get the following error when trying to update:

ERROR: Could not detect Ninja v1.8.2 or newer

However the following version is installed via pacman. ninja-1.10.2-1

---> Solved by installing ninja via pip.

~~Just tried to install this with an up-to-date ArchLinux system and I get~~

~~It seems package 'fixesproto' is out-of-date?~~

[Edited]:I've solved this problem with replacing xorgproto-git(2021.3.0) in AUR to Extra/xorgproto(2021.4-1)
