Have you checked lsusb and syslog whether the USB device is recognized? And then there may be the two common pitfalls:

1) You do not have the permissions to access the device. Try with sudo to check that.
2) The stock kernel NFC subsystem has claimed the device. Check if "lsmod | grep pn533" yields a result.

To solve above two issues see the Note in http://nfcpy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/get-started.html

Hope that helps.

Can you help with this problem?
