No, sadly no, I got the same exception while using an other ePassport program
(pypassport) on Linux, so I guess there is some main underlying problem in a
config file or something...
It is probably in the python implementation of reading smartcards...
Sadly this project is totally dead so I am not expecting any help from the
developers, we should figure it out on our own or just use a different reader
program (eg. RFIDIOt by Adam Laurie)

I've had this error on initial read attempts on one Win7 X64 box, then on
another Win7 x64 box, it only appeared after two successful reads. I was able
to resolve it. I'm not claiming to know the exact source of the issue, but it
does seem to be state sensitive. Not clearing/quiting the program after a
successful read might be a reason. Here's what resolved it for me:
1. After receiving the error, close the program completely.
2. From it's running directory, ensure the config.ini "path" is pointed to a
real directory and remove the extra newline after "sm=[true|false]" in the
[Logs] section
3. if the 'history' file in the directory is not empty, clear it out
4. Re-run per the manual
My guess is it attempts to use some previous values from somewhere (e.g.
history file).. Hope this helps

For my passport it was really the access protocol as stated in the error message
"Smartcard Exception: Unable to connect with protocol: T0"
With Windows 8 64bit I did this:
1. A manual installation of all the components like in the installation
instructions for pypassport and epassportviewer.
2. Edited line 158 in file pypassport-1.0\pypassport\reader.py
from
self._pcsc_connection.connect(self.sc.scard.SCARD_PCI_T0
to
self._pcsc_connection.connect(self.sc.scard.SCARD_PCI_T1
3. From pypassport directory in a command line with administration rights
"setup.py install"
4. Moved ePassportViewer.py from sub-directory "epassportviewer" up to the
directory "epassportviewer-1.0" in which I had unzipped the sources (where
config.ini is located).
5. Started "ePassportViewer.py" and it worked.
