Sure. This module as a very short asm part in it, I think this is what causes the problem. Anyway, this module isn't very useful yet, so the best you can do is skip it. Edit kernel/Module.mk and comment out the following lines: KERNELTARGETS += $(MODULE_DIR)/i2c-algo-biths.o KERNELINCLUDES += $(MODULE_DIR)/i2c-algo-biths.h After that, i2c should compile and install OK (I hope). We'll have a look at the faulty module and see what we can do to fix it. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
