pcscd is a smart card daemon. If you don't use smart cards for
authentication, you can just turn it off with /sbin/chkconfig pcscd off
It sounds like a bug, can you file it? Running strace -s512 -f -p
$(/sbin/pidof pcscd) might give some indication what it's doing (or
getting a backtrace from gdb)
Very strange. When I attached strace, the cpu cycles used dropped
down to nothing.
odd.
Then, when I stopped pcscd and tried to restart it,
the process won't start up again.
Maybe try rm -f /var/run/pcscd*
I wonder whether strace somehow
caused pcscd to not stop cleanly? I'll file a bug and post with the
bug ID. Should I CC you inside the bug report?
Sure, maybe include a reference to this thread in the mailing list
archives, too.
