Dear list,

libccid/pcscd support[1] an integrated cardreader found in some Lenovo 
notebooks[2]. I tried to make it work using libchipcardd but my attempts 
remained unsuccessfull.
I added the device ID / a reader section to
/etc/udev/libchipcard.rules
/usr/share/chipcard/server/drivers/ccid_ifd.xml
and tried to use 'open' within cardcommander or "chipcard-tool [check|list|
monitor]" which didnt recognize any card.
Also starting as "chipcardd4 -f -v --loglevel debug --logtype console" did not 
produce any output which would suggest the cardreader has been detected.
Hibiscus words fine using this reader, though it has alternative ways of 
accessing the device and I'd like to use libchipcard-based software.

I'll be happy for any hints and suggestions. If there is further information 
needed, just ask, I'll try to provide it.


Sincerely,

Daniel
