while trying the ccid driver , i noticed that the ACR38 has 2 kind of readers , a ccid reader and one using the pcsc driver. mine was not a ccid (ACR38U) so a couldn't use this one. i than update mu pcsc driver but still no success > > I am not sure but IIRC, Ludovic Rousseau recently anounced that his > libccid (as used by pcscd) works with this reader.

Don't ask me what it is or do but it seems to block exclusive access to the card reader. after this step , gpgsm --learn-card worked. I tested it to sign a file and used KMail to send mail that where signed by the Eid card. :-) thanks for the support luc _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
