* You can get a driver from iDream for pcsc-lite: [http://www.idream.be/getfile.php?id=107 linux driver_STD200_THRC.zip] but I could not get it working and it's for a quite old version (pcsclite 0.9.1).

I tried to install openct and opensc, there was communication with the reader with the standard CCID, I can get communication with a VISA card but with the Belgian eID I get error at protocol selection and the beidgui was not working neither.
 apt-get install beidgui
 => libopenct1 libpcsclite1 libbeidlibopensc2 libbeid2 beid-tools beidgui libccid pcscd

I could finally get it working, not with openct which gave the broken results as shown above but with libccid:
<br>Edit /etc/libccid_Info.plist and add the vendor/product ID to the list, e.g.:

Now a simple call to beidgui works :-)
<br>Check [[Belgian eID]] for other experiments with the eID card under Linux.

Avoid openct to try to open the reader: edit /etc/udev/rules.d/z60_openct.rules and comment out:
 # ccid
 #ENV{MODALIAS}=="usb:*ic0Bisc00*", RUN+="/lib/udev/openct_usb"
