I've now switched to a non-pcsc based setup, and that indeed doesn't change anything. But I'm a bit puzzled. Why would it not make sense for the internal driver? I'd say quite the contrary, powering down the card means something else could open the device, while when scdaemon holds it noone can (I know if multiple clients are expected it's a better idea to use pcsc, but still). And in any case, if scdaemon is the only holder of the connection to the card, it can surely manage the timeout itself? Sorry if this is obvious, I might miss something. Regards, -- Yves-Alexis Perez
