hi!

by the way...what do you mean with "rats" ?!? *hmmm*

so:
i put lots of printk()'s into the w83781d.c file and set init to value "0"...
but still no success. :(
let me explain,
when using the attached file i tried a
"modprobe w83781d"
and /var/log/messages told me
"Dec 20 13:14:42 kernel: i2c-core.o: i2c core module"
"Dec 20 13:14:42 kernel: i2c-proc.o version 2.6.1 (20010825)"
"Dec 20 13:14:42 kernel: init_module called."
"Dec 20 13:14:42 kernel: w83781d.o version 2.6.2 (20011118)"
"Dec 20 13:14:42 kernel: i2c-core.o: driver W83781D sensor driver registered."
the printk with "init_module called" was printed out.
obviously no other printk was called... *hmmm* is this ok?

then i unloaded w83781d
"Dec 20 13:26:09 kernel: i2c-core.o: driver unregistered: W83781D sensor 
driver"
and loaded i2c-piix4
"Dec 20 13:26:37 kernel: i2c-piix4.o version 2.6.2 (20011118)"
"Dec 20 13:26:37 kernel: i2c-piix4.o: Found CSB5 device"
"Dec 20 13:26:37 kernel: i2c-core.o: adapter SMBus PIIX4 adapter at 0580 
registered as adapter 0."
"Dec 20 13:26:37 kernel: i2c-piix4.o: SMBus detected and initialized"
"Dec 20 14:25:05 syslogd 1.4.1: restart."
and there is no printk output.
maybe writing to /var/log/messages isn?t "fast" enough, and the system 
freezes before write completes..?
is there a way to print debugging info to the console?

thx

MK
