How do you conclude that "smartcard reader apparently disconnects"? Did you see any error message or something? > When it gets disconnected, if I try to access it, I get the following > > $ gpg --card-status > gpg: selecting openpgp failed: ec=6.108 > gpg: OpenPGP card not available: general error What's the output of "lsusb" when you encounter this?

When your 'gpg' is GnuPG 1.4.x and it's not configured using agent, it is possible that there is gpg-agent and scdaemon running with your card reader and GnuPG frontend of 'gpg' tries to access the card reader directly and fails. -- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
