cardman + ccid driver problems

Description

I've never had any luck in getting the OpenCT "cardman" driver to work (tested up to 0.64rc1, with CardMan? 2020 and 6020). Even worse, if OpenCT tries to handle the devices, it'll interfere so that the vendor's partly closed source drivers won't work either while OpenCT's ifdhandler is running.

While ifdhandler tries to do its job, all I get is a lot of this in syslog: Mar 29 23:52:27 gk012 ifdhandler[1767]: cardman: failed to get card status

So, what I've been doing is to comment out the cardman driver in openct.conf, openct.usermap and Info.plist. I will attach the "fix" here if I can figure out how to do that in Trac :)

By the way, the same applies to Cardman 3121, which is a ccid reader; it won't work for me with OpenCT either. I haven't been able to test it with OpenCT 0.64rc1 yet, only 0.62; will report back later (possibly tomorrow) when I can try it out with the release candidate.

  • summary changed from cardman driver problems to cardman + ccid driver problems

Ok, verified, the CardMan? 3121 doesn't work either (driver: ccid). It does work with Ludovic Rousseau's "ccid" driver package with pcsc-lite. With openct 0.6.4rc1, I get this in the syslog:

Mar 31 12:19:18 skyttav ifdhandler[383]: ccid: begin capture: -5 Mar 31 12:19:19 skyttav ifdhandler[383]: usb_submiturb failed: No such file or directory

To prevent openct from messing up with this reader, I comment out "usb:076b/3021" in openct.conf, perhaps this should be done by default in openct.

The CardMan? 3121 problems are now gone in 0.6.5rc1, will post an updated patch to opensc-devel.
