Hi, I've upgraded from Lucid->Maverick->Natty
The reason for failed startup is that is line 41 within /etc/init.d/pcscd In short: ======= BEGIN ======== # DO NOT start daemon on startup # comment the line the have same behavior as in version < 1.6.0 exit 0 ======= END ========= Whenever application is started that is client (e.g. pcsc_scan) to pcscd, it tries to connect to existing daemon. If no daemon is running (which is the case), the pcscd is started with the credentials of the user with following line: pcscd --auto-exit Once you close the context, the pcscd dies after some time. This in turn causes pcscd to initiate driver without privileges to access usb device, and therefore no device appears. The resolution is either to patch the /etc/pcscd (remove exit 0) or to adjust the permission for each possible device.
