Well, if you have a working setup which you are happy with then there's also no need to change that, right? :) I have a mixed 32/64 system, but the smart card related packages I run are so far 32. I need to switch to a full 64 system soon, if you like I can keep you updated on how OpenCT and cm4040 works for me there. > > I do not have to rely on a closed source software for doing my > > smart card crypto.

Let me know if you would like more information from me about my setup. I'm happy to document it in order to help others. The way I do some things will probably be different from what others would like, but that should be easy enough to adjust. I e.g. have udev run openct-control init as my user, and I manually run pcscd -f when I want to use the reader. One or both those things can be done differently if prefered. //Peter
