Description Willy Weisz 2011-03-20 23:28:27 UTC

In openSUSE 11.4 the PCSC driver doesn't recognize my CardReader Reiner-SCT (VendorID = 0x0c4b, ProductID = 0x0300).
When pluging the CardReader the following log message is written in the log messages file:

Mar 21 00:02:23 pinkassi kernel: [  496.641288] usb 5-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3

Mar 21 00:02:24 pinkassi pcscd: readerfactory.c:273:RFAddReader() REINER SCT CyberJack pp_a (4714714177) init fail

And the command cyberjack tells me that the CardReader is recognized, but that the service PC/SC isn't available.

This happens with the packages of the 11.4 distribution as well as the packages pcsc-ctapi, pcsc-lite-1 and libpcsclite1 from the Factory.

Comment 1 Willy Weisz 2011-03-21 08:04:31 UTC

2 more comments:

1. Also ctapi-cyberjack has been updated from the Factory.

2. Not special to this bug report: It is not possible to enter openSUSE 11.4 as the OS when product is openSUSE 11.4.

Comment 2 Willy Weisz 2011-03-23 22:56:29 UTC

With kernel 3.6.38-18 from the Tumbleweed directory the error message
"hdj_probe() unsupported device, idVendorc4b, idProduct:300"
has disappeared, but the PC/SC service is still not available.

I think you would need to attach /var/log/messages excerpt with this kernel.

As I said in my previous comment: The message excerpt is the same except for the now absent hdj_probe-related message.

Comment 5 Egbert König 2011-04-04 19:10:35 UTC

Same for me,

openSuSE 11.4 x86_64.

Comment 6 Wolfgang Rosenauer 2011-04-05 10:36:54 UTC

It seems to be an incompatibility between pcsc-lite and the cyberjack driver FWIW. And also an issue with an even newer pcsc-lite (1.7.2) what I'm currently preparing for Factory. I guess we need to debug or update the cyberjack driver but newer sources disappeared unfortunately from upstream. I'm checking currently with the vendor.

The Reiner-SCT web page offers the new version of drivers at:
<http://support.reiner-sct.de/downloads/LINUX/V3.3.6/ctapi-cyberjack-3.3.6.tar.gz>

Comment 8 Wolfgang Rosenauer 2011-04-05 11:08:26 UTC

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
I actually was thinking about the 3.99.x driver which is somewhere and also supports the new RFID cyberjack models but its source has not been seen in public afaik (violating the LGPL actually).

Comment 9 Wolfgang Rosenauer 2011-04-05 11:43:31 UTC

cyberjack 3.3.6 fails with the same issue

Comment 11 Wolfgang Rosenauer 2011-05-03 16:34:47 UTC

I have now packaged 3.99.9beta and fixed a bug there and I'm currently testing.
I'm not absolutely sure how/if we can provide an update for 11.4 later since there are some things to consider with the new driver.

I installed the 3.99.9beta package together with its pre-requisite libstdc++46,
and I can again use my Reiner-SCT (non-RFID) CardReader.

Thank you

Please remove rfid from the subject, as the problem is also present with non-RFID CardReaders

Good, but apparently you have installed the wrong version as the requirement seems bogus. Make sure you install the package fitting your distribution version. (But as long as it works, all is well ;-))

Those are different reasons though.
- RFID is not supported from version 3.3.x in general 
and
- 3.3.x does not support pcsc-lite in 11.4 and throws errors

Comment 14 Wolfgang Rosenauer 2013-05-30 07:36:20 UTC

Nothing more to do here, right?

Comment 15 Willy Weisz 2013-05-30 08:11:51 UTC

My Rainer SCT works like a charm form quite some time. I'm running openSuSE 12.2 now.

The bug report can be closed. Thanks.
