Please answer these questions as part of your new issue.

Which OS and version are you running?

Is SPI enabled?
Yes --> and already checked!
Are you trying to read/write a Mifare Classic card? (This is currently unsupported)
Also
Hi, the NFC card reader PNEV512R (https://www.nxp.com/products/rfid-nfc/nfc-hf/nfc-readers/explore-nfc-exclusive-from-element14:PNEV512R) does not work with my new raspberry pi 4.
Kernel:
Linux AlexPi 5.4.51-v7l+ #1333 SMP Mon Aug 10 16:51:40 BST 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux
Release:
PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)"
NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="10"
VERSION="10 (buster)"
VERSION_CODENAME=buster
ID=raspbian
For installing the needed software I followed this manual: https://github.com/svvitale/nxppy Installation was without any fails. But even the instantiation of Mifare raises an exception.
Python Code:
import nxppy
mifare=nxppy.Mifare()
Exception:
nxppy.InitError: Nxppy: Unknown Error from Undefined Component
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "nfc.py", line 3, in <module>
mifare=nxppy.Mifare()
SystemError: <class 'nxppy.Mifare'> returned a result with an error set
The SPI was switched on of course. ^^ And I tested the interface with the loopbacktest: https://elinux.org/RPi_SPI So SPI is working. On my Raspbarry Pi 3B+ everything works fine. Now I am looking for a solution to fix this problem. Do you can help me out here?
Thanks a lot Alexander
