In the reality the reader don't write the data on the smart card! The reader send a
command (called an APDU command) to the smart card. The OS of the smart card
interprets this command and handle it. If this is a writing command, the OS write, etc.
The command for doing that you want is dependent to the smart card you choose and it's
OS.
You can look for Java Card which are smart cards understanding programs in Java Card
(a subset of Java). Perhaps you can also just want to use memory card? There are not
supported by PC/SC Lite. For them look for CT-API and a reader supporting this API.

The ACS serial seems supported on linux see [2].
For the problem of support with the ACS see the mailing list [3] and the support of
ACS!
I have many differents readers and ofen I use the GemPC410 as soon as the drivers of
my other readers have some bugs.
