Although I am in favor of improving openct, I agree with Martin in this case.
The most CCID compliant library we have is libccid, first work out the
problem with libccid.
It may be that openct's CCID implementation works for you as it much
simpler and use smaller set of features.

Yup, that worked, sorta. Long hangs and strange behavior... I just
needed to use a newer opensc and ccid. Anyway, good enough for me for now.

Thanks!

The device you have should be CCID [1], but with issues. Maybe your firmware is 
newer and/or the reported problem is already fixed now. Check the descriptor to 
be sure [2].
As most applications (including OpenSC) want to talk PC/SC to your reader by 
default, you would save yourself some trouble by using pcsc-lite+libccid 
instead.

I don't know if maintaining a separate, smaller and not so well checked list of 
CCID devices in openct.conf is a very good idea. There's one maintained by 
Ludovic [3] and I believe it is the most comprehensive list available.

Cheers,
Martin

[opensc-devel] Broadcom 5880 in openct.conf

2011-04-25 Thread Stef Walter 
I've heard that openct may not be that relevant any more, but in any
case here's an OpenCT patch to add support for the smart card reader in
my laptop.

Should I put this in the opensc trac, or does it go somewhere else?

Cheers,

Stef
