Can you check if it works when logged in as root?

3

Hello,

no it isn’t working as root.

the ifdhandler uses an other User ID.

Stefan

4

What was the result of the following when tried as root?

tail -20 /var/log/messages
5

Hello,

and thanks.

What shout i try as Root ?

The the ifdhandler has no access to the usb Device and if start the ifdhandler as root. It has access to the device. But Application can not access.

In /var/log/messages is nothing.

/var/log/messages shows nothing

But Application has no access

See if it is trying to connect as a user (ifdhandler). If that is the case, you need to check the permission on the device /dev/bus/usb/001/005

8

How can i find out what user ist ifdhander using ?

The permisions on the USB Device are as shown

ls -l /dev/bus/usb/001
crw-r–r-- 1 root root 189, 0 1. Dez 13:36 001
crw-r–r-- 1 root root 189, 2 1. Dez 13:36 003
crw-r–r-- 1 root root 189, 4 2. Dez 09:59 005

when i change the permisions to chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/001/005

it WORKS !
But when reconnect the reader, i have the same permison problem again.

Stefan

9

Do you mean the permission is getting reset when you reconnect? Did you check that?
Also, see the /var/log/messages to verify that it uses the same /dev/bus/usb/001/005 when reconnected.

10

no it isn’t using the same ID. It allway use another ID

It counts up

Bus 001 Device 010: ID 04e6:511d SCM Microsystems, Inc. SCR3311 Smart Card Reader

Bus 001 Device 011: ID 04e6:511d SCM Microsystems, Inc. SCR3311 Smart Card Reader

It is the same with an USB Stick:

Bus 002 Device 014: ID 0204:6025 Chipsbank Microelectronics Co., Ltd CBM2080 Flash drive controller
Bus 002 Device 015: ID 0204:6025 Chipsbank Microelectronics Co., Ltd CBM2080 Flash drive controller

You may have to set up a udev rule for it.
Have a look in /etc/udev/rules.d/
There may be a rule file already there.

12

Ok i found pcscd_ccid.rules

and insert the ID for the Reader. Now it that file, but it changes nothing. The reader was detected by the Class 0x0b:

how can i see what udev and hal are doing ?

Your device’s line is:

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="04e6", ATTRS{idProduct}=="511d", RUN+="/usr/sbin/pcscd --hotplug"

You can change the device’s permission there. I am not very sure about the full details but it is something like:

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="04e6", ATTRS{idProduct}=="511d", MODE="0666", RUN+="/usr/sbin/pcscd --hotplug"
14

Good Morning Syampillai,

that solve the Probelm. Thanks a lot.

But why is changing ? What was New ?

For ohters how have the Problem:

Goto /etc/udev/rules.d
open pcscd_ccid.rules and insert your Card Reader like this:

SCR3311.txt

SUBSYSTEMS==“usb”, ATTRS{idVendor}==“04e6”, ATTRS{idProduct}==“511d”, MODE=“0666”, RUN+="/usr/sbin/pcscd --hotplug"

Replug it and all is OK.

Stefan

15

One Question i have, sorry

In /usr/lib64/hal you find hald-addon-openct it is paart of the openct package it have to change the owner of the Device:

#!/bin/bash

PRODUCT="printf %x/%x/%x $HAL_PROP_USB_DEVICE_VENDOR_ID $HAL_PROP_USB_DEVICE_PRODUCT_ID \ $HAL_PROP_USB_DEVICE_DEVICE_REVISION_BCD"

chown daemon:daemon $HAL_PROP_LINUX_DEVICE_FILE
exec /usr/sbin/openct-control attach usb:$PRODUCT usb $HAL_PROP_LINUX_DEVICE_FILE
~

but it isn’t working. Isn’t it calling or why not it changes the owner ?

Stefan

16

HAL is deprecated and the new equivalent mechanism is called DeviceKit.
I don’t know the full details but openSUSE (and few other distributions) have already started using DeviceKit.
