If a module doesn't load with no parameters, you may need to
add parameters. Check 'dmesg' for clues to what went wrong.
BUS NUMBERING
-------------
I2C/SMBus adapters are numbered in the order they are inserted. If you want
to know what number an adapter has, please make sure module `i2c-proc' is
inserted, and look at file /proc/bus/i2c. The ISA bus always has the
symbolic number 9191 (`I' is the ninth letter of the alphabet, `S' the
nineteenth and `A' the first). If you want 'any I2C bus', use '-1'
(or 65535).

/proc/bus/i2c. If you want 'any I2C bus', use '-1' (or 65535).
So to summarize:
-1 Any Bus

9191 ISA BUS
ADDRESS NUMBERING
-----------------
Each adapter has a number of addresses on I2C/SMBus adapters and/or the
ISA bus that are always scanned if no modprobe parameters are given. The
parameters below override those addresses that are scanned by default.

entering `man modprobe' or `man insmod'.
So to summarize:

0x0000 - 0xffff Valid ISA Bus Addresses
