Thanks for the reply, I've experimented a little bit further with the drivers and applications....
I've tried running the ./tester executable CT_API tester that comes with the towitoko 2.0.6 drivers in the /usr/local/towitoko/bin directory. I can't seem to get it to work no matter what com port i attach the smartcard reader to. After initializing .. i get the following error message "Error on port allocation -10" Any clue as what can cause this error.... --- I've also tried experimenting with the pcsc lite package... during the ./configure stage i get the message saying "you must link pthread libraries with your app" what does this actually mean ? But the application proceeds to install. However after the installation i can't seem to run pcscd in /usr/local/pcsc/bin/. It displays the following message "error while loading shared libraries: libpcsclite-core.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" I've checked my /etc/reader.conf file and the LIBPATH points to the correct directory, which is /usr/local/pcsc/lib and the file is there. I can't seem to figure out what the problem is .. Thanks again for any help... i know that my questions are quite trivial compared to other problems u guys seem to have but i have to start somewhere....
