Troubleshooting
I got the error (on ubuntu 14.04):
#> yubico-piv-tool -a status Failed to connect to reader.
This is a problem with USB: so put the Yubikey in another mode and reinsert it, install (see #Personalisation_Tool_and_basic_installation_on_Ubuntu) and start the yubico personalize tool (gui or cli) and do:
ykpersonalize -m82
Reinsert the key and you can go ...
