EZ100PU smartcard reader doesn't work until replugged in

I'm trying to install EZ100PU smartcard reader on the Linux in our company, which I believe is a modified Fedora 10.

The issue is that my EZ100PU smartcard reader doesn't work whenever I start pcscd. However, it works after I replug it.

I tried pcscd -d -f to see what's going on. The following is the output snippet:

Code:

I then replugged my EZ100PU, the following messages showed up:

Code:

hotplug_libhal.c:366:HPAddDevice() Adding USB device: usb_device_ca6_10_noserial_if0

readerfactory.c:249:RFAddReader() Using the pcscd polling thread

and my EZ100PU worked fine.

Our system installed PCSC-lite 1.5.5 and EZ100PU driver 1.4.9.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
