supercard ram

I am trying to use the supercard ram. I am using licks ram libarary which did work prior to upgrading to the latest libnds. the code that I use enables data caching on the slot 2 ram. on the latest libnds this hangs immediately. so, i skipped the data caching code. it appears to work for a little while then it will hang again. I have noticed that I can get it to start working again if I open and close the lid a few times or if it receives new wifi packets. none of the slot 2 ram is used by wifi or the arm7 so I do not think that it is bus contention. any ideas?

This unfortunately is always going to be a hazard with code that is neither contributed to devkitPro libraries nor kept up to date with the latest toolchain/library releases.
If you can find the code for this I'll have a look, I have an M3:SD & a SC:miniSD I can test with.

the problem was of my own making and not related to lick's ram library. I forgot that you had made some changes to the startup code. I took a closer look and noticed that the layout of the memory regions changed. I was messing with the wrong regions. sorry, I hope I did not waste too much of your time.
