OpenPGP card not accessible

Hello,

i made some progress with my new OpenPGP card. I can access it with 

gpg --card-edit but i cannot do anything, because GnuPG immediately exists and 
says there was no card....

gpg --card-edit first detectd the card  and then suddenly says "OpenPGP card is 
not available", though it is still in the card reader....

I use gpg 2.0.9 and the Reiner SCT ctapi-driver, scdaemon.conf looks like 
this:

ctapi-driver libctapi-cyberjack.so
reader-port 1

The ctapi driver seem to be the only way to access the card a little bit, but 
it still does not work correctly...

If someone have some experience about these issues, let me know

Malte
