Thank you, still no luck. I managed to get esc-1.1.0-24.el6_2.2.src.rpm and rpmbuild --rebuild esc-1.1.0-24.el6_2.2.src.rpm yum upgrade esc-1.1.0-24.el6_2.x86_64.rpm
esc now starts but does not detect my reader. I've tried with the built-in reader, a Dell usb keyboard with a reader and a stand alone usb reader. all with the same results. The only hint of what's wrong now is /var/log/messages shows: pam: gdm-smartcard[2460]: argument card_only is not supported by this module This is with the built in reader: pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: pcscdaemon.c:581:signal_trap() Preparing for suicide pcscd: readerfactory.c:1267:RFCleanupReaders() entering cleaning function pcscd: pcscdaemon.c:531:at_exit() cleaning /var/run pcscd: utils.c:123:StatSynchronize() Can't open /var/run/pcscd.events/event.2412.17011478: Bad file descriptor pcscd: utils.c:123:StatSynchronize() Can't open /var/run/pcscd.events/event.4825.16998508: Bad file descriptor pcscd: utils.c:123:StatSynchronize() Can't open /var/run/pcscd.events/event.3144.17025878: Bad file descriptor pcscd: pcscdaemon.c:506:main() pcsc-lite 1.5.2 daemon ready. pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found pcscd: winscard.c:309:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found This is with the usb keyboard: kernel: usb 6-1: Product: Dell Smart Card Reader Keyboard kernel: input: Dell Dell Smart Card Reader Keyboard as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb6/6-1/6-1:1.0/input/input13 kernel: generic-usb 0003:413C:2101.0002: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Keyboard [Dell Dell Smart Card Reader Keyboard] on usb-0000:00:1d.0-1/input0 readerfactory.c:1024:RFInitializeReader() Attempting startup of Dell smart card reader keyboard 00 00 using /usr/lib64/pcsc/drivers/ifd- ccid.bundle/Contents/Linux/libccid.so readerfactory.c:233:RFAddReader() Dell smart card reader keyboard init failed.
