Brian Gough’s Notes

Success.. I can now read and write to smart cards.

Got my new card reader this morning, so spent most of today getting it working.

I don’t have my FSFE pin yet, so I tried it out on some spare GPG cards I had left over from a talk I gave last year about free software & security.

The fsfe cryptocard arrived today. Looks very nice! After a bit of research I have ordered a new card reader (SPR532). I decided to go for one with an built-in keypad so that the pin can be entered directly into the reader (see here). May as well do things properly, the chain is only as strong as the weakest link and all that.
