Long shot... Anyone any experience with an #OmniKey AG #CardMan 5121 RFID reader?

We have one (in a printer) and worked find with #pcsclite before, but latest version does not work, gets "card is unpowered".

Yes, I have tried lots of suggestions from "the internet". At this point I may need to try and get hold of such a reader so I can work on it here (printer is at the office).

Only clue so far is pcscd debug shows it trying different voltages, which only makes sense for contact card.

Help!

For anyone else running pcscd on #debian testing, the latest package update brought a new major version which seems to have enabled polkit without actually installing any rules, resulting in default deny for any smartcard access.

Either add an appropriate polkit rule or to revert to the previous behaviour, drop in to /etc/default/pcscd:

PCSCD_ARGS=--disable-polkit

#pcsclite
