Hello,

I'm looking for a suitable SmartCard read with USB connection for 12-CURREN=
T (and
probably 11-STABLE). We have lots of Omnikey 3121 devices at hand, but I wa=
sn't able to
make this type of SC reader working. it is recognised by the kernel as UGEN=
 device on the
USB bus.

I tried to investigate what driver I need to use, but failed. The reference=
s I found
referring to SC card daemones all point to a serial device like /dev/cuaUXX=
 - but as far
as I know, such a device is present if the UART<->USB has been recognised b=
y the
appropriate driver.

So, the question is: do I miss something here (I'm not quite familiar with =
USB/serial
devices)?

If the device Omnikey HID 3121 is properly supported and I'm to dull to fig=
ure this out -
please enlighten me! If there are aafordable alternatives (external or inte=
rnal for
add-on in a workstation) I would be glad to get your hint.

So far, thank you very much in advance,

Oliver
