Card? is the problem related to some card reader?

because with usb crypto tokens like the eutron stuff this is normal:
 - openct-control init creates the status file
 - openct-control init also checks all usb devices available and starts one
   ifdhandler for each supported device.
 - if there are no usb devices plugged in, no ifdhandler is started.
 - if you plugin some ifdhandler, either hotplug, udev or hald will get a 
notification from kernel and start "openct-control attach ..." which in
turn runs an ifdhandler.

so I guess your problem is the hotplugging. are you using hotplug, udev
or hald for that? most old distributions use hotplug, most new ones want
to use hald, but hald is completely undocumented and seems to miss
important features, so I can't help your with it. udev is supposed to work
with latest svn. make sure the openct rules file is installed 
as "92-openct.rules" (also see thread on opensc-users).

Quickstart document needs updates. most likely you did not install the udev
rules file.
