Yubikey on Linux?

Hi friends! Has anyone here had success using Yubikeys on Linux? I've been going back and forth with support to no avail, trying to get my Yubikey 5C NFC to play nicely on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I have the following Yubikey-related packages on my system:

└── udev rules for unprivileged access to YubiKeys

└── Python library for implementing FIDO 2.0

├── is installed
└── Middleware to access a smart card using PC/SC (daemon side)

  

UPDATE: After working my way down the entire software stack, I contacted the vendor of my USB-C port and requested a replacement. It did the trick...
