Hello, Im no expert in the card reader/card driver area but; Im also running Linux Mint 9 with gpg2 and keys on smartcard. Im not sure which card reader you have (I've got an Omnikey reader) but in my case I pretty soon had to abandon the CCID-driver (gpg built-in) in favor of PCSC. Try:
/apt-get install pcscd libpcsclite1/ You should find /usr/sbin/pcscd running when checking running processes. /Astrakan On 2011-04-03 13:24, Paul R. wrote: > Hi, > > I recently installed GnuPG 2 through a package manager on a Linux > system, and when I issued "gpg2 --card-status", I got the following > error: > > gpg: OpenPGP card not available: No SmartCard daemon > > I searched my system for scdaemon, but it is not installed.
