That works.

gpg --card-status is not my problem. That works.
So I'm still not sure how to add the key from the card to the gpg-agent
by using ssh-add.
ssh-add -l reads from the card (according to the LED) but shows "The
agent has no identities" which is true since I haven't added a identity
at this point.
And ssh-add -s needs a reader-parameter. If this is the correct option
which value would be needed here?
Thanks,
 Wolfgang
