Thanx, I tried the updated GnuPG, but it still does not work, see below. You 
use the same driver, just a different Cyberjack reader, so my guess is, it is 
the reader that makes trouble. It is a Cyberjack Secoder, released in 2008, 
maybe it is too new to work correctly with the delivered ctapi driver. Since 
your Cyberjack and the ctapi driver works it may be more likely it is the 
Secoder that is not properly supported by the current ctapi driver...
