Hi, I have 14 CCID readers connected through 2 USB hubs here. It works like a charm with the un-modified driver and daemon (standard Debian package libccid 0.9.2-2 and pcscd 1.2.9-beta6-1).
There are just some race conditions when I unplug and replug the cable between the PC and a USB hub (with the 7 readers connected to it) that makes the USB drivers crash. After that, I cannot access the readers anymore, even by restarting PCSC. Then I have to reboot or to un-load the kernel modules, reload them and restart PCSC for recovering my system. I guess it's a kernel problem (home brewed 2.6.7)... Let's try to sneak in a little feature request regarding the hardcoded limit to 16 readers... ;-) Why not having no limit and allocating ressources dynamically? Or at least set it through a configuration parameter (only one for the daemon and the readers can get it from the daemon at startup)? This is anyoing to re-compile the drivers and PCSC just for that, especially when you use pre-compiled packages like me. Some people will tell me that it's not common to have more than 16 readers and they are right, but... Have a nice day. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bruce Barnett > Sent: Tuesday, November 02, 2004 10:53 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [SPAM] - Re: [Muscle] 7-port hub ccid/pcsc-lite > modifications - > Bayesian Filter detected spam > > > > > I use 9 readers [1, 2] and it works fine with the old values. > > Moreover if you have a 7-port USB hub I guess you have less > than 6 readers and I > > don't see why we need to update to 32 the maximum number > of readers. > > Okay.
