I tripped into the same problem today. Usually pcscd starts fine, but at least today it did not.
We should really ask a "real" Ubuntu developer to get this right! Upstart-job scripts are replacing the old init-scripts and HAL was replaced (at least partially) by DeviceKit in Karmic, so maybe there are more changes needed to get this working correctly in upcoming releases. I am not an init- or upstart-expert, so we should call-in someone who is. Is there some special place for asking this kind of questions? -- pcscd is supposed to run at startup, but sometimes it does, sometimes not, can't tell why. It started reliably in my last distro, crunchbang, based on ubuntu 9.04. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/475821 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
