+To start OpenCT daemon, run "/etc/rc.d/rc.openctd start". This is
+most easily accomplished by adding the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.openctd ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.openctd start
+ fi
+
+For serial and pcmcia readers only, for using it as a PC/SC ifdhandler,
+you have to edit file reader-openct.conf in /etc/reader.conf.d/, to
+comment lines in other file(s) and run "/usr/sbin/update-reader.conf".
+
+Beware!
+- OpenCT daemon is meant as _alternative_ to pcsc-lite: running rc.openctd
+and rc.pcscd at the same time can and will lead to unforseeable problems
+(specially with usb devices that can be managed by both of them, one daemon
+can claim one device, making it unavailable for other daemon).
+- for some unknown reasons, if you start rc.openctd and then stop it,
+you may need unplug and plug-in your usb smartcard reader in order
+to it to be seen again, so udev rule is re-applied.
