The default 'make install' does not compile pcscd with usb support (which was the reason of the "problem" with the packages). You should first './configure --enable-usb' to enable usb support. If you have the GemPC430 bundle in the 'drivers' folder of the pcsc install, it should work. > BTW do you know anything about the GPR400 device driver?

Could you please copy the message, it would be very helpful. Also, what do you use to install pcsc-lite: the tarball or a rpm package? Which version is it? Here is a list of possible cause: - the first versions of the debian package were not compiled with USB support, maybe it was the same for the rpms. - if you have USB support compiled as module, you have to install the usb-uhci module "by hand" - if you get the following message, you may not have copied the bundle to the right location. pcscd:pcscdaemon.c 126: /var/run/pcscd.pid pcscd:pcscdaemon.c 146: main: PC/SC Lite Daemon Ready. pcscd: hotplug_linux.c 146: No bundle files in pcsc drivers directory I hope this helps, JLuc. *** Linux Smart Card Developers - M.U.S.C.L.E.
