My setup required pcscd running and using coolkey library through
Firefox for a security device.  I knew it was working correctly when
it would blink when I inserted my card in the reader.  I am not sure
if your's works the same way, but it may.  If you need to use pcscd,
try running it in console and seeing it's output.  I had to adjust
some things to get it working right, based on the output I saw.

Hi John,
Thanks for the response. I am using 'activcard' to access my VPN.

I do have coolkey installed. But, I don't know whether it is really
being used rightnow. I will try to gather more data with coolkey.

Thanks,
