Hello,

When looking at the logs of pcscd, I see the following messages:

jan 22 09:47:37 edoras pcscd[1663]: 00000000 auth.c:125:IsClientAuthorized() 
Error in authorization: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: 
Process not found
jan 22 09:47:37 edoras pcscd[1663]: 00000031 auth.c:143:IsClientAuthorized() 
Process 1565 (user: 115) is NOT authorized for action: access_pcsc

It seems that GDM is not allowed to talk to pcscd.

GDM has the functionality to detect whether there is a smartcard in the
reader and then use the gdm-smartcard PAM service instead of the
gdm-password one to perform login.

I guess that GDM should be whitelisted to allow it to use pcscd?

Kind regards,
Laurent Bigonville
