Hi,
Even if I add pcscd to boot list ("update-rc.d pcscd defaults"), I can't
find it in the System Monitor, and when I run testpcsc it fails with the
same error:
Testing SCardEstablishContext : Service not available.
Again, after starting pcscd manually as root, pcsctest works as expected.
So, for the configuration of pcsc-lite 1.6.5, ccid-1.4.1 and Ubuntu 10.10 I
have to run pcscd manually which is a regression from previous versions.
Is there anyway I can continue working as before/
Best Regards,
Amiad
