Ok, finished! (at least in terms of hardware "research") The Tehila project suggest 5 card readers which are "supported" by them (well, someone will support, maybe, Tehila doesn't know how to support people), you can see the list here: http://www.gov.il/FirstGov/smartCard/business/businessStart/
<http://www.gov.il/FirstGov/smartCard/business/businessStart/>I won't look at the serial and PCMCIA solutions cause everyone got USB these days, so we're left with 3 cards: 1. Athena ASE llle USB - this card is fully supported under Linux. You can download it's driver (fully open source), run configure, make, make install and thats it. I think it's already included on some recent distribution, but even if it's not, it takes 1 minute to compile & install. 2. SCM SCR3310 - This card uses a *binary only* library (scmccid) which it has some hard-coded library path inside it (some developers should be shot!). Avoid this card if you prefer not to mess with binary only stuff. Please note: it's not binary only kernel driver, only user level shared library. 3. GemPlus GemPC Twin - This one is the nicest. You don't need any special drivers. If you're distribution is pretty modern, it should have the driver for it inside the kernel and it would be auto recognize it when you connect it to your machine. Amos - I assume that OS X has PC/SC support inside, so you should have out of the box support on your Mac on 1 and 3. Funny thing: Number 2 driver got this on it's Info.plist file: <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" " http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";> Thats - for the kernel stuff. User level stuff - that I need to research a bit... Thanks, Hetz 2010/11/14 Amos Shapira <amos.shap...@gmail.com> > How is the market share of Apple in Israel these days?
