Re: OpenPGP Card (USB) in NetBSD 10.0

[Abu Hussain Al Mukhtar <abuhussain%secure.mailbox.org@localhost>]

Hi all,

Doing some more (re)search, I came across this thread:

https://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-users/2019/11/29/msg023645.html

which describes similar problems with a device from the same vendor.
With the generic kernel, my device is indeed attached as a HID device.

I implemented the changes suggested by Tobias on that message, namely
building a custom kernel with the following line added (<> acts as a
placeholder here):

ugen* at uhub? vendor 0x20a0 product <0x...> flags 1

That is indeed what is needed to get the gpg card functionality up and
running, though  unfortunately, it killed the u2f functionality of the
device, which is present and working in the generic kernel.
Are these functionalities mutually exclusive for one single device on
NetBSD? I have no experience with the configuration of custom kernels,
so any hint on how can I get both functionalities working at the same
time with the same device is greatly appreciated.

BR.-
