Could the ibm iic driver be missing something? Frank's driver is a "new-style" i2c driver. These drivers do not probe the i2c adapters for supported chips automatically. Instead, platform code should explicitly instantiate the I2C devices that are present on the system. In the case of embedded designs, this is typically done by calling i2c_register_board_info() in platform code. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@lm-sensors.org http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
