insmod of the i2c-amd756 failed.

[han.nguyen]

Hi there,

I installed lm_sensors 2.8.0 and i2c 2.8.0 on the SuSe machine with kernel 2.4.19. The installation went well. I ran sensors-detect and the program detected
AMD-8111 SMBus 2.0 and AMD-8111 ACPI. The program sucessfully installed the i2c-amd8111 for the SMB 2.0 but failed to install i2c-amd756 for the AMD-8111 ACPI. 
The details are in the included file that I captured when I ran the sensors-detect program. The dmesg just gives the module name and its version number.
Do you have any idea on what is going on and any sugestion on anything that I need to do.

Thanks a lot,

Han

Please give a try to 2.8.1 (released today) in case it changes
something. It is possible that i2c-amd8111 and i2c-amd756 are mutually
exclusive. Try unloading i2c-amd8111 before loading i2c-amd756.

The PCI device ID of the SMB 1.x? interface has changed on the AMD8111. 
 The new PCI ID needs to be added to the PCI table in the amd756 driver.

I'm not sure to understand what you mean precisely. Could you explain it
more in details and/or commit the required change to CVS?
Thanks.
