I have no idea what it is, but every time I need to log in to a government website, I have to switch to Windows to make my card reader work. This is a deal breaker for me. It is only happening in Ubuntu 22.04, no other major Linux distros.
The packages involved are: apt install eid-viewer eid-mw Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done The following additional packages will be installed: *beid-mozilla-extension beid-mozilla-webext libbeidpkcs11-0 libbeidpkcs11-bin libeidviewer0 libnss3-tools* The following NEW packages will be installed: *beid-mozilla-extension beid-mozilla-webext eid-mw eid-viewer libbeidpkcs11-0 libbeidpkcs11-bin libeidviewer0 libnss3-tools* 0 upgraded, 8 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 1.027 kB of archives. After this operation, 3.606 kB of additional disk space will be used. My system is a pretty standard installation (no alterations with regards to snap or apt), runs nearly daily updates and there's still no fix. I fail to see how it has anything to do with Firefox as the software (eid-viewer) runs without Firefox installed and should read a smart ID card. At the moment I'm stuck with 1 computer, until my work laptop comes back from repair. Once that's done I'm going back to Ubuntu 20.04 or even Debian Bullseye until I know a solution has been found. I have tried 3 different card readers that are "supported on Linux", yet the latest Ubuntu fails on all of them. Everything installs fine but I keep getting the message that no card reader is found when I launch the id viewer.

After upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04, the card reader no longer works. The system recognizes 'something' when I plug it in: Bus 003 Device 007: ID 0bda:0165 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Smart Card Reader Interface Yet when I open the software to read my ID, it says "No card reader found". When I plug in my ID, I'm expecting to see a LED turn on but that doesn't happen in 22.04 anymore (still does in 20.04). This chipset is used in a very common card readers. While it's definitely more than a couple years old, it's still a product that is commonly used.
