Which versions of i2c and lm_sensors are you using? Such an error would occur if you used i2c-2.8.0 but lm_sensors 2.8.1, for example. Please check that /usr/src/linux-2.4.23-rc1/include/linux/i2c.h has the i2c_delay function defined at the end. If it hasn't, this means you failed patching your kernel tree in a proper manner. Since you obviously patched your kernel, you are advised to use the enhanced i2c patch available here: http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/devel/i2c/ which has more than the one mkpatch.pl would produce and will let you use non-sensors i2c drivers as well. The patch replaces the i2c one only, you'll still have to apply the lm_sensors patch after that, based on the same version as i2c. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
