Basic setup: Of course, you need [[http://www.gnupg.org|GnuPG]], either `gpg` or `gpg2` will do. We recommend to install `gpg-agent` and `scdaemon` as well. Depending on your system, you may need to configure udev (or hotplug, its predecessor on older systems) to work with your card reader. If `gpg --card-status` (or `gpg2 --card-status`) shows your card’s contents on a freshly booted system, such configuration should not be necessary. * [[/CardreaderSetup | Quick setup for Linux systems]] * [[/CardreaderSetup_(udev)|Setting up your card reader on GNU/Linux (udev)]] * [[/CardreaderSetup_(hotplug)|Setting up your card reader on GNU/Linux (hotplug)]] |

You will now create a group scard, give this group permission to access the smart card reader, and include the users who should have access to the card reader to this group. # addgroup scard # addgroup yourusername scard (change for the right username) # exit (to logout the root user) Done!
