What kernel version did you patch? What does dmesg show when calling
hciattach (should be some ***** Serial messages)?
Does the card work with a 2.4 kernel (e.g. 2.4.29)?

I didn't find l2test nor rctest but I tried some OBEX file transfers and
only got around 25-30 KiByte/s, the same with Windows so it seems the
card really is limited to 230400 baud...
Btw, do you know another cf card without external antenna?
