Remo Tabanelli No, but at /dev/ttyS* is what is used in linux now, its hardly any idea to stick to what was used in the old versions.

Actually drivers should use /dev/ttyS* instead of /dev/cua*. Some Linux distributions (Debian 2.0 for instance), even with kernel 2.0.* haven't got /dev/cua*. The usage of /dev/cua* is deprecated and has been removed from kernel 2.1.* and laters. I will change this on ASAP on Towitoko CT-API. If you want to begin playing with sources you have to modify CT_init() function on ctapi.c module. A fast and simple workaround is to use simbolic link /dev/smartcard (on Towitoko CT-API this is the default when you specify other port distinct of COM*). 2) Xcard supports most smartcards right? ( I use the towitoko chipdrive) I think Xcard currently supports only Schlumberger cards. More cards will be available as Xcard is ported to PC/SC. Regards, Carlos.
