-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, we've got following request (viz [1]): i2cdetect requires the i2c-dev module be loaded so the appropriate /dev entries are created. This is not done automatically, so when i2cdetect is initially run it gives the false impression that no buses/devices exist: # i2cdetect -l # modprobe i2c-dev # i2cdetect -l i2c-0 i2c i915 gmbus ssc I2C adapter i2c-1 i2c i915 gmbus vga I2C adapter i2c-2 i2c i915 gmbus panel I2C adapter i2c-3 i2c i915 gmbus dpc I2C adapter i2c-4 i2c i915 gmbus dpb I2C adapter i2c-5 i2c i915 gmbus dpd I2C adapter i2c-6 i2c DPDDC-C I2C adapter i2c-7 i2c DPDDC-D I2C adapter Attached is a patch that autoloads i2c-dev module when neccessary. If you like it and have commit rights, push it please instead of me. If you don't like it, don't hold back and tell me.
