Re: MXC MMC and Libertas_sdio

Hi,

I just managed to get the libertas card to work. Unfortunately the
data-rate is not too good (30 - 50K/s)

To get it work I changed block sizes to be multiples of 4.

Could somebody please point out a good place to increase buffer sizes
to multiples of 4 without influencing the performance/error rate of the
driver?
Are there other possibilities to increase data-rate for my
configuration?

thank you!

Andreas
