Smartcard not recognized

[Donald Wayne Chandler]

Hi,
  I've been unable to access my smartcard since switching to Linux.  
I'm running Ubuntu 7.04, Thunderbird 2.0, Enigmail 0.95, gpg 2.0.4 and
gpg 1.4.7.
I know Linux will support it, and would really appreciate some ideas on
where the
problem lies.
