Karsten,

Thanks for replying.

I ran bundleTool and I am presented with two choices (I installed all
PCSC packages on my Debian system)...

  1.     mscMuscleCard.bundle
  2.     slbCryptoflex.bundle

I tried both bundles.  Both result in the same result: token is not
supported.  So I gather that I have to use PCSC instead.... or is there
an easy way to teach muscle how this card works?  How does one create a
new "bundle"?
