Setting up the Belgian EID under Ubuntu 12.4 has changed quite a bit from previous releases.
Steps to activate the Belgian EID:
- install the basic smartcard drivers:
sudo apt-get install gdebi-core libacr38u libccid
- download the middleware & viewer packages from http://eid.belgium.be/nl/je_eid_gebruiken/de_eid-middleware_installeren/linux/
- install the downloaded packages
sudo gdebi ~/Downloads/eid-mw_4.0.4r1253_amd64_tcm227-178472.deb
sudo gdebi ~/Downloads/eid-viewer_4.0.4r146_amd64_tcm227-178482.deb
- modify firefox settings.
- Enter about:config in the url bar. Modify the security.ssl.renego_unrestricted_hosts key intofas.services.belgium.be.
- go to Edit / Preferences / Advanced / Encryption
- modify the Belgium CA2 certificate: enable the 3 options
- restart the smartcard daemon:
sudo /etc/init.d/pcscd restart
- restart firefox
You can test the basic setup by running eid-viewer.

Thanks for the instructions, I just tried this on 13.4 and it works well.
one note: You do not need the advanced changes on firefox - if you install the firefox Belgian e-ID extension then it works just as needed.
regards,
Luc
