[Muscle] Questions on Omnikey Cardman 4040 and Gemplus GemPC Card PCMCIA card readers

[Sihan Goi]

Hi,
It's the GemPC PC Card, not the 400.

In case it helps, I've installed pcmciautils, and a tail -f
/var/logs/messages shows that the card reader has been inserted and
registered. pccardctl also shows that the reader is detected
correctly, but pcscd doesn't show any activity.
