Precision 7730 smart card reader does not work out of box

[NIckolas Holloway]

The Canonical certified smart card reader will not function until the following commands are run:

sudo mkdir /tmp/USH

cd /tmp/USH

sudo mkdir debs

cd debs

sudo wget https://http.kali.org/pool/main/p/pcsc-lite/libpcsclite-dev_1.8.24-1_amd64.deb

sudo wget https://http.kali.org/pool/main/p/pcsc-lite/libpcsclite1_1.8.24-1_amd64.deb

sudo wget https://http.kali.org/pool/main/p/pcsc-lite/pcscd_1.8.24-1_amd64.deb

sudo wget https://http.kali.org/pool/main/p/pcsc-tools/pcsc-tools_1.5.4-1_amd64.deb

cd ..

sudo apt-get -f install -y

sudo apt purge lib-pcsc* pcscd* -y

sudo apt install ./debs/*.deb --install-recommends -y sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev sudo wget https://alioth-archive.debian.org/releases/pcsclite/ccid/1.4.25/ccid-1.4.25.tar.bz2

sudo tar xvfj ccid-*.tar.bz2

cd ccid-1.4.25/

./configure

sudo make

sudo make install

sudo cp src/92_pcscd_ccid.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/

sudo systemctl restart pcscd

sudo systemctl status pcscd

sudo pcsc_scan

Additionally, the following commands, which do the same thing as the above in a cleaner way, do NOT resolve the issue in both the OEM and public image:

sudo apt install -y libpcsclite-dev libpcsclite1 pcscd pcsc-tools libusb-1.0-0 libusb-1.0-0-dev libccid libacsccid1

sudo systemctl restart pcscd

sudo systemctl status pcscd

sudo pcsc_scan

I have no idea what the "Precision 7730 smart card reader".
Can you add here the output of the "lsusb" command?

[NIckolas Holloway (nickolas.holloway)]

Hi Ludovic,

I can provide the output as soon as I get back in front of that machine; I'm referring to the built in smart card reader in a Dell Precision 7730 mobile workstation. It's a Broadcom BCM58102PB0KFBG smart card reader, my apologies.

[Jill Manfield (jlmanfield)]

To add to this the following URL suggests the support and drivers should be bundled:
https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201803-26164/

The Dell OEM image does not house the drivers, nor does the Canonical image. Is this expected? Should there be documentation on how to get this working without using opensource drivers since it is certified?

What does the certification mean?

Is there anything we need to do at Dell to get canonical and Dell to work on getting the Kati.org pcscd* drivers bundled?

[Jill Manfield (jlmanfield)]

Does this cert indicate only Realtek is certified?

Following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonAccessCard
Does not work to get the smartcard reader working.
pcsc_scan returns
'Waiting for first reader....'

[Jill Manfield (jlmanfield)]

The information Nick previously provided was how they got around the issue using the Kali opensource drivers. Would you like us to follow https://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/ccid.html#support to get you that information.
