Hi ml, I run into a little problem, which I don't know how to solve it. I am using the eg20t i2c bus and a custom platform init driver, which gets started after eg20t is ready. And there I do the following: /* buzzer and relay */ static struct gpio_led _gpio[] = { { .name = "relay", .gpio = 0, .active_low = 0, .default_state = LEDS_GPIO_DEFSTATE_OFF, .default_trigger = "timer", } }; static struct gpio_led_platform_data _gpio_data = { .num_leds = ARRAY_SIZE(_gpio), .leds = _gpio, }; static struct platform_device _gpio_hw = { .name = "leds-gpio", .dev.platform_data = &_gpio_data, }; static struct platform_device *devices_tc[] = { &ot1300_gpio_hw, }; int tunnelcreek_init(void) { struct i2c_adapter *i2c_adap; /* we use the integrated i2c adapter */ i2c_adap = i2c_get_adapter(0); if (!i2c_adap) return -EIO; eeprom = i2c_new_device(i2c_adap, &i2c_eeprom); pca953x = i2c_new_device(i2c_adap, &pca9555_info); lm75 = i2c_new_device(i2c_adap, &lm75_info); platform_add_devices(devices_tc, ARRAY_SIZE(devices_tc)); return 0; } If I run this code I get following messages: [ 1.552122] i2c 0-0050: uevent [ 1.552307] at24 0-0050: probe [ 1.552361] i2c 0-0051: uevent [ 1.552530] dummy 0-0051: probe [ 1.552544] i2c i2c-0: client [dummy] registered with bus id 0-0051 [ 1.552559] at24 0-0050: 512 byte 24c04 EEPROM, writable, 16 bytes/write [ 1.552644] i2c i2c-0: master_xfer[0] W, addr=0x50, len=1 [ 1.552655] i2c i2c-0: master_xfer[1] R, addr=0x50, len=24 [ 1.557235] i2c i2c-0: master_xfer[0] W, addr=0x51, len=1 [ 1.557248] i2c i2c-0: master_xfer[1] R, addr=0x51, len=20 [ 1.560820] i2c i2c-0: client [24c04] registered with bus id 0-0050 [ 1.560944] i2c 0-0021: uevent [ 1.561136] i2c i2c-0: client [pca9555] registered with bus id 0-0021 [ 1.561197] i2c 0-0048: uevent [ 1.561357] i2c i2c-0: client [lm75] registered with bus id 0-0048 [ 1.561638] leds-gpio: probe of leds-gpio.0 failed with error -22 [ 1.568354] VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly on device 8:2.

So no gpio's are available. Whats the best way to fix this?
