Hi,
I have a problem in one location. We are using smart cards to store CA 
keys, so they are always active for a long time. In one place running 
Oracle Enterprise Linux, kernel 2.6.9 and pcsc-lite 1.4.102, the cards 
seem to hang randomly. Sometimes after one week, sometimes after three 
months.
The easy solution is to simply pull the card out and insert it again. No 
restart of pcscd or anything is needed, so it does not seem to be a 
problem with pcscd.
Stopping and starting pcscd does not help, the card is "unresponsive" 
until powercycled.

Now to my question :)

Is there some way to powercycle/reset a card without physically pulling 
it from the reader?

Kind regards,
Tomas Gustavsson
