Why doesn't my ACR38 SmartCard Reader work?
- by Andrea Grandi
Hello,
I've this SmartCard reader:
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 072f:90cc Advanced Card Systems, Ltd ACR38 SmartCard Reader
I've installed the following packages: pcscd, libacr38u, pcsc-tools, and a driver available on this website http://www.bit4id.com/italiano/download/download_file/Linux.zip
the pcscd daemon seems running:
andrea@centurion:~$ ps -e | grep pcsc
2799 ? 00:00:00 pcscd
when I try to test if the smart card is working, I get no reply:
andrea@centurion:~$ pcsc_scan
PC/SC device scanner
V 1.4.16 (c) 2001-2009, Ludovic Rousseau <[email protected]>
Compiled with PC/SC lite version: 1.5.3

Waiting for the first reader...
how can I fix this?
