Sorry, did not manage to dig that out of the kernel. What I could use now as a sanity test is an i2cdump address of s... Dennis Volper

06:47 PM Software Development: RE: I2C Board Support Package

The 1 does indicate which bus. It tells i2cdump to open "/dev/i2c-1" instead of "/dev/i2c-2". It is used to append ... Michael Williamson

06:26 PM Software Development: RE: I2C Board Support Package

The board rev is the same, a few differences with some of the hex codes. But doesn't the 1 in that command indicate w... Dennis Volper

06:02 PM Software Development: RE: I2C Board Support Package

OK. Looks like your I2C0 port is up and running and is communicating with the on-board devices in the kernel.

05:31 PM Software Development: RE: I2C Board Support Package

I2C0 is actually /dev/i2c-1 (bus numbering for i2c starts at 1 in the kernel, it's a bit arbitrary actually).

04:46 PM Software Development: RE: I2C Board Support Package

So my problem is I'm only seeing /dev/i2c-1 after the boot. Dennis Volper
