Hey there, I’m having a trouble with my Yubikey not showing me the TOPT passcodes I have saved to it, It DOES show Passkeys though. I don’t have this problem when I plug it into my phone, so I’m really not sure what the problem is. Anybody know what the fix is?
EDIT: I figured out that for whatever reason, the Flathub version just doesn’t function properly. When I install the tarball from Yubico’s website, the executable DOES work right, but I can’t seem to figure out how to make the .desktop file install into the programs list.
Enable the PCSCD service. This happened to me after updating Arch yesterday. You’ll find details on the Arch Wiki if you search for ‘yubikey’.
Unfortunately, I don’t believe it’s working
- Has it ever worked on that PC?
- Do you have pcscd installed?
- Are you using a USB-A yubikey with a USB-C adapter?
It used to work properly. I can use the challenge-response to unlock my password manager and I can use passkeys just fine, but for whatever reason it won’t show me one-time codes.
pcscd is installed, but I don’t believe it is functioning properly, even when I enable it
The Yubikey is plugged into a USB C port. The same issue persists even when used in the other USB C port.
The other commentor mentioned theirs broke after update. So it is probably that. Reason I ask about USBC to A adapter is yubikey fits either way in the adapter A side. And I have had it upside down in the adapter and not realized it.
Did you enable and start the service?
systemctl enable pcscd.service
systemctl start pcscd.service
That’s what worked for me. Maybe try reinstalling pcscd if that doesn’t work.
EDIT: I figured out that for whatever reason, the Flathub version just doesn’t function properly. When I install the tarball from Yubico’s website, the executable DOES work right,
It looks like because the sandbox of Flatpak prevent the program access the unix domain socket of pcscd.
but I can’t seem to figure out how to make the .desktop file install into the programs list.
There is a document on Arch Wiki.
