If you want to avoid usb polling (according to upstream's advice), you can compile with "HALD=1 ./pcsc-lite.SlackBuild" in order to use libhal for detecting your reader. +NOTE: drivers are not included and must be compiled and installed separately. +See DRIVERS file in pcsc-lite's doc directory for more information on getting +and installing specific drivers. pcsc-lite is compiled with the +--enable-usbdropdir=<libdir>/pcsc/drivers flag -- this directory will be the +destination for usb readers' drivers (ccid, cardman, and others). + +For serial and pcmcia readers only, it is necessary to edit files in +/etc/reader.conf.d/ and run "/usr/sbin/update-reader.conf". + To start PC/SC-lite daemon, run "/etc/rc.d/rc.pcscd start". For pcmcia readers, this daemon should be started after rc.pcmcia - this is most easily accomplished by adding the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local: |
