Hi all,

I have encountered a problem communicating with a Gemplus Pro R3 card using
a GemPC400 PCMCIA reader ? The GemPC400 reader has no problem reading
211PK-IS card.

I also tried reading the Pro R3 card with SCR331 USB reader, and it works.
It seems like the GemPC400 drive/hw doesn't work well with the Pro R3 card.

When I tried to 'connect 1' using MuscleTool to my GemPlus Pro R3 card using
the GemPC400 READER, it reports 'establishconnection failed or token
unsupported'. When I trace the debug for the IFDHTransmitToICC, the status
is 0xa2 for the Pro R3 card.

Has anyone encounter similar problem?

Thank you.

Note:
1. OS - Linux 2.4.18 (Redhat)
2. PCSC-Lite - 1.1.1
3. Muscleframe - 1.1.3
4. Ifdgpr400 - 0.3

Best Regards,
Paul Tan
