Dmesg: "card Has Unknown Mmca Version 4"
« on: March 07, 2006, 05:24:05 pm »
After I decided I wouldn't like SD anymore for their closed-source only policy I bought  1 Gig MMC card, to my surprise it was reasonably priced and theoretically fast (15MBit/s). OK it's a "plus" and I don't know whether Z supports "plus", but I can live with "minus" speed. It's works well in my camera's SD slot and not slower than my SD card.

Under OZ 3.5.3, kernel 2.6, I get the "mmc0:card has unknown MMCA version 4" in dmesg. Anyone familar with that? They should be downwards compatible; thus, I hope it would be sufficient to tell who ever issued that error to treat version 4 the same as prior versions. Any hints?

2.6 sd/mmc support is limited to type of cards for which specifications are available. This means that not all cards will work ;(

There are several patches available to add mmca v4 to 2.6 and iirc one of them should be in 2.6.16

Now that I know that. Is there a compatibility list? (Vendors don't usually print things like MMCA version on the packages.)

There is no such list. Making it is nearly impossible in a world where you can get 5 same looking cards which will be completly different inside.
