MUSCLE Re: Re: PCMCIA Readers

1999-02-22 Thread Morten Norman

 You will get at least one soon, when I have my driver for the Intertex
 modem + reader working.  I write for the external version, but it will
 work with the Intertex PCMCIA too.

why does it work for PCMCIA also??? Why do you think that?? or is it
installed like a serial card (because it's modem+reader) ??

Your assumption is right.

PCMCIA card service has to do its job and "install" it as a modem when
it's inserted.  To my driver, it will then just look like a modem on a
COM port, or in the ISA slot.  It just needs to know where it is, but
/dev/modem should be a fair guess...

Best Regards

Morten

1999-02-22 Thread Per Undheim


1)
Excuse me if this has been published before on the mailinglist, but
as Ilost some of my archive Ididnt find it. Is there any fix
for the fact that /dev/ttyS* is used instead of /dev/cua* in linux 2.2.*
? I downloaded the latest version of Xcard Icould find (1.0)but
that used the /dev/cua*. were could Ichange this in the source, in
order to get it to work.?
2)
Xcard supports most smartcards right? ( Iuse the towitoko chipdrive)

Actually drivers should use /dev/ttyS* instead of /dev/cua*. Some Linux
distributions (Debian 2.0 for instance), even with kernel 2.0.* haven't
got /dev/cua*. The usage of /dev/cua* is deprecated and has been removed
from  kernel 2.1.* and laters. 

I will change this on ASAP on Towitoko CT-API. If you want to begin
playing with sources you have to modify CT_init() function on ctapi.c
module.

A fast and simple workaround is to use simbolic link /dev/smartcard (on
Towitoko CT-API this is the default when you specify other port distinct
of COM*).

I think Xcard currently supports only Schlumberger cards. More
cards will be available as Xcard is ported to PC/SC.

Carlos.

You mean that a link (ln) among /dev/ttyS* and /dev/cua* does not
work ?
