I may be misunderstanding the documentation, but how else do you test if I2C stuff is working?

If that breaks dependencies... ignore them > (you'll be replacing what's needed anyway). I built new rpms for i2c-2.7.0 and lm_sensors-2.7.0. I then did a clean install of the RPMs (Note I am running under RH8.0/Linux 2.4.20 with I2C compiled as a module). Is there anything else I should be doing here? Is there any way I can be helpful in pushing support forward for the ASB100 chip? I am not a device-driver programmer but I can help alpha or beta test :) Thanks again for your help. Regards, Jeff
