Have you read Documentation/i2c/writing-clients already? That would be a very good start. Or more generally, the developer's documentation section on http://i2c.wiki.kernel.org/ -- Jean Delvare -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
