I haven't created a patch - I need some time to rowk out exactly how to make it work and the changes are not just against the i2c 2.8.0 code. It appears that there is a bug in the changes done to the kernel code to.The changes however are very simple: 1) File i2c-rpx.c line 21 #include "i2c-algo-8xx.h" needs to be moved to below #include "asm/commproc.h" 2) File i2c-algo-8xx.c line 37 #include "i2c-algo-8xx.h" needs to be moved to below #include "asm/commproc.h" 3) Not in the I2C sources: drivers/i2c/Makefile CONFIG_I2C_ALGO_8XX needs to be CONFIG_I2C_ALGO8XX Just remove the underscore. And that's it...

You hit the right address, we are interested in your patch. Please send it to us. Comments about what it does and why it is necessary would be very welcome too. However, please dont send us a modified patch. This patch is soooo big and I guess you just fixed some lines. What we would need is a patch against our original I2C source code. Please download i2c-2.8.0.tar.gz (or checkout from CVS, at your option) and generate a patch from this. (If you don't want to/don't know how to do that, send your large file to me only and I'll try to handle it.) -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
