problem with R502 reader on Ubuntu 10.04

[Wardor]

Hi everyone.

I have a problem with R502 reader.
When I connect the reader to my PC through USB port, my PC can only find the contactless reader. As far as I know, it should find 3 readers: Contact and Contactless,SIM

Does anyone know why my computer can only find contactless reader? Thanks

My Computer OS : Ubuntu 10.04

If you want to fully support R502 reader on Ubuntu10.04, you need to upgrade all the program and libraries, and also fix the problems while running.

Running apt-get install ccid to latest version.

After CCID 1.4.21, the official CCID has add R502 support
