Actually drivers should use /dev/ttyS* instead of /dev/cua*. Some Linux
distributions (Debian 2.0 for instance), even with kernel 2.0.* haven't
got /dev/cua*. The usage of /dev/cua* is deprecated and has been removed
from kernel 2.1.* and laters.
I will change this on ASAP on Towitoko CT-API. If you want to begin
playing with sources you have to modify CT_init() function on ctapi.c
module.
A fast and simple workaround is to use simbolic link /dev/smartcard (on
Towitoko CT-API this is the default when you specify other port distinct
of COM*).

I think Xcard currently supports only Schlumberger cards. More
cards will be available as Xcard is ported to PC/SC.
