I2C/Sensors 2.5.70

I2C/Sensors 2.5.70

[Margit Schubert-While]

Is anybody looking at getting $Subject working ?
At the moment i2c-sensor.c never gets compiled which is bad as
it contains i2c_detect needed by all the sensors.
And (assuming sensors works) where does the sensor info(fan, temp etc.)
get put?

Will have to check with Greg here.

In /sys/bus/i2c/....

OK - Has anybody tested/got running I2C/Sensors > 2.5.6x ?

Who's maintaining the 2.5 sensors part ?
Need some info on naming conventions/display units for a port
of lm85 driver (chips lm85(b,c), adm1027, adt7463).
Doc is a wee bit out of date :-)

Look in -mm, Documentation/i2c/sysfs-interface.
Mainline seems to have lost this...
Greg KH is the Maintainer, though I wrote the via686a driver.

Works for me :)

What is your .config?  Are you sure you have selected a i2c chip driver?

In sysfs.  Look at Documentation/i2c/sysfs-interface for more
information on the different files and values.

thanks,

Looks like it's there to me.  Are you sure it's gone?

Indeed it is. Must have been a bit fast... :)

Look at this line in the Makefile :
obj-$(CONFIG_I2C_SENSOR)        += i2c-sensor.o

There is no sign of CONFIG_I2C_SENSOR anywhere.

Check at the bottom of this page:
http://linus.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/anno/drivers/i2c/chips/Kconfig@1.10?nav=index.html|src/|src/drivers|src/drivers/i2c|src/drivers/i2c/chips

2.5.x should be setting it for you if you have in fact
selected an i2c chip.

Indeed (kicks self).
So,  to test a new external driver, I have to select an existing one.
Seems a bit restrictive.
I think it should be selectable in I2C (builtin/module) and cross-checked
in sensors.
