I’d like to add that I’m not trying to use a memory card, but a HBCI
signature card (or an GnuPG smartcard, with same symptoms).

Ludovic, would you be good enough to maybe give us a more elaborate
guide on how to use libccid correctly? The current code is in
http://devel.aqbanking.de/svn/libchipcard/trunk/src/drivers/ifd/driverifd.c
and note that your library is opened via dlopen, so in the function
DriverIFD_Start you can find the mapping from libccid-function-name to
the function pointer used later.

Thanks in advance for helping me to be able to use my card reader,
Joachim
