Acked-by: Pali Rohár <pali@xxxxxxxxxx> Anyway, if you have a time then try to look into decompiled ACPI DSDT table if Dell had not put somewhere this SMBus/I²C address of the accelerometer. I remember that for older Latitude E6440 I looked into every DSDT method related with accelerometer if there is not some information but I have not find anything and also Dell confirmed that this address information is not there present. I'm still hoping that Dell put autodiscovery address for new machines somewhere... And if you are more curious you can start investigation what are other devices which i2cdetect showed (only those with UU are bound to some kernel/userspace driver). > --- > drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-i801.c | 1 + > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-i801.c b/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-i801.c > index 070999139c6d..cb9660f84117 100644 > --- a/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-i801.c > +++ b/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-i801.c > @@ -1230,6 +1230,7 @@ static const struct { > * Additional individual entries were added after verification. > */ > { "Latitude 5480", 0x29 }, > + { "Precision 3540", 0x29 }, > { "Vostro V131", 0x1d }, > { "Vostro 5568", 0x29 }, > }; > -- > 2.43.0 >
