Hi all,
I have a key on an official Austrian banking card (the operating system of the 
card is ACOS, the company that provides the keys is a-trust). How can I use 
this card with my Reiner SCT CyberJack card reader to sign mails using gnupg?

The card's OS is proprietary (it also doesn't seem to be a pkcs#15 card), but 
a PKCS#11 library for mozilla is provided. This works just fine in mozilla, 
however, I want to sign mails in kmail, which only uses gnupg.

gpg --card-status doesn't seem to detect the card.

Cheers,
Reinhold
