Broadcom 5880 Smartcard/UPEK Reader 0a5c:5800 and 0a5c:5801
is supported by openct using ccid

[embar-]

I tested Contact Smart Card Reader 0a5c:5801 according http://natisbad.org/E4300/ and it works!
Device details: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fprint/2014-November/000654.html

(0a5c:5800 is very similar, according
http://wiki.yobi.be/wiki/Laptop_Dell_Latitude_E6500#.28Partial.29_Smartcard_reader
but I did not tested)

Why do you use OpenCT instead of pcsc-lite and the CCID driver?
http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/pcsclite.html
http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/ccid.html

Note that your reader is listed in the "Unsupported or partly supported CCID readers" list
http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/ccid/unsupported.html#0x0A5C0x5801

Yes, device works with pcsc.

As you see in http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/ccid/unsupported.html#0x0A5C0x5801 its about older CCID release 1.3.12

It works with newer CCID releases as you see in http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/ccid/shouldwork.html#0x0A5C0x5800

The same device ID 0a5c:5800 and 0a5c:5801 is common for several devices, the hub may named e.g. "Broadcom Corp. BCM5880 Secure Applications Processor with fingerprint swipe sensor"

I.e. the same computer can have two devices – contacted and contactless – reader.
To make contacted reader work is enough to install pcsc-lite, pcsc-ccid, perl-pcsc, openct, opensc and edit /etc/openct.conf , /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-openct.rules .

But to make contactless reader working, your need to do trick in MS Windows, because only for Windows there is special program to change some device modes: dissable "CV-only" mode and enable CCID compatible mode.

I will ask again: Why do you use OpenCT instead of pcsc-lite and the CCID driver?

What does not work if you remove OpenCT?

i can confirm the BCM5880 reader works out of the box with CCID driver
