Towitoko does not provide any Linux driver for it's readers. I'm
currently developing a CT-API - CT-BCS compliant driver for Chipdrive and
KartenZwerg readers. It is not fully functional yet, but you can perform
almost every task with it:
- Send ISO 7816-4 commands to T=0 proccesor cards (I'm currently
working on T=1 transport protocol).
- Communicate with direct convention cards (working on inverse
convention).
- Handle the reader by mean of CT-BCS commands Request ICC, Reset ICC, Get
Status and Eject ICC.
The source is under ftp://apolonio.atos-ods.es/pub/musclecard. Current
release is 0.96.
Please let me know any problem you experiment with the driver. It will be
very usefull to me in order to improve it.
Bye,
Carlos.
