[Muscle] GDM with smartcard

[Anderson Goulart]

Hello,

I know this question is on the archives, but I could not find any solution
for this yet...

I am trying to authenticate a user with a smartcard. I am using OpenSuse 11
with GDM 2.24. Everything is working, but not quite as I would like to.

This is how it is:

1) GDM prompts for a Smartcard or a Username.
2) I insert the smartcard
3) Then press ENTER
4) GDM ask for PIN
5) PIN typed and press ENTER again
6) User accepted


What I am trying to do is deal with insertion and removing the smartcard.
When I insert the smartcard I would like GDM to show the PIN dialog without
pressing ENTER. And if I remove, GDM should show the Username/Password
dialog again. The same idea was discussed a few years ago on this list (
http://www.mail-archive.com/muscle@lists.musclecard.com/msg04346.html and
http://osdir.com/ml/gnome.gdm.general/2006-10/msg00010.html - GDM list) and
the solution was not clearly explained for me. Anyone knows how to deal with
this? Or have some information that could be useful?

I found tw solutions (didn't work) for this: Quest software (
http://rc.quest.com/topics/gdm/ - too old) and a multistack patch for GDM
2.28 (Fedora patch), but I could not make it works (in Fedora) and the
compilation for Suse 11 was not so easy (because of some newer hal
functions).


ps: I got an Omnikey card reader


Thanks,
Global
