Walter,
please tell us your system (uname -a).
Have you compiled some module for the smart
card reader? If yes, please let me the gcc version
(if you used gcc) know.
What is your /etc/fstab entry?
Something similiar to
/dev/sda1 swap swap defaults 0 0
??
What is the exact name of your smartcard drive?
