finally i got my cryptocard and now is the moment to test it out.
11:10 i read the first howto [1].
11:20 the straightforward way has little problems. gpg --card-status finds no libpcsclite.so. creating a proper link resolves the problem and restores my good spirits.
11:35 i switch to the subkey howto [2].
11:55 error: pcsc_transmit failed. solution: gpg --disable-ccid [3]
12:00 lunch
22:00 continuation of the work. i redo the whole process of key-generation because i wonder how i can realise to work with my old secret-keys on the card and test it with old mails, but it seems, there is no (easy) way... i will search some information and continue another time.
