However, > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-0 doesn't exist. /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-* is new in kernel 2.6.32. For older kernels, look in /sys/class/i2c-adapter. That being said, method 4 is new in kernel 2.6.31 anyway, so it isn't what you want. > There is also ds2482_detect in ds2482.c of 2.6.27.25 (Method 3); still > cannot see /sys/devices/w1_bus_master1. As I recall, this isn't a real detect function, because the list of addresses to probe by default is empty. For the detect function to be called, you must provide extra module parameters (e.g. probe or force). > What is the problem there? Should I update some infrastructure files > from 2.6 git?

Until your dts file lists the ds2482 device, you must load the ds2482 driver with the right parameter. -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/wishlist.html -- 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
