The patch is unlikely to be the cause, because there have been very few changes between the 2.4.21 patch and 2.4.22 patch. What's more, the driver you talk about is part of lm_sensors, not i2c itself. I guess that you were using lm_sensors 2.8.0 with the 2.4.21 kernel, and that you are now using lm_sensors CVS with a 2.4.22? In this case, this simply means that a bug was introduced in the w83781d driver after 2.8.0 was released, and tracking the changes using CVS should reveal it (I can't verify this right now, since I'm offline, but I will as soon as possible). OTOH, if you are still using lm_sensors 2.8.0, trying CVS could help. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
