2. Installation
---------------

- Install the driver: # dpkg -i libccid_1.2.4-0_i386.deb

- Install the pcscd provided with this package:
# dpkg -i pcscd_1.2.9-beta9-0bpo1_i386.deb
libpcsclite-dev_1.2.9-beta9-0bpo1_i386.deb
libpcsclite1_1.2.9-beta9-0bpo1_i386.deb

The pcsc-lite daemon will (re)start automatically during installation.


3. Troubleshooting
------------------

For some Linux distributions, the pcmcia daemon should be loaded after
the pcscd daemon. As the pcscd daemon does not manage PCMCIA smart card
reader as hotplug devices, it might not take into account your GemPCCard
presence. To solve this issue, please restart the pcscd daemon as
explained below:

# /etc/init.d/pcscd restart
