Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
i2c-via is an i2c bus driver for motherboards with VIA chipset.
|
|
|
|
The following VIA pci chipsets are supported:
|
|
- MVP3, VP3, VP2/97, VPX/97
|
|
- others with South bridge VT82C586B
|
|
|
|
Your /proc/pci or lspci listing must show this :
|
|
|
|
Bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C586B ACPI (rev 10)
|
|
|
|
To install this driver, simply do
|
|
# modprobe i2c-via
|
|
|
|
This driver uses the i2c-algo-bit module which must be
|
|
modprobed and/or enabled in your kernel
|
|
(Character Devices -> I2C Support -> I2C Bit-Banging Interfaces).
|
|
|
|
Problems?
|
|
|
|
Q: You have VT82C586B on the motherboard, but not in the listing.
|
|
|
|
A: Go to your BIOS setup, section PCI devices or similar.
|
|
Turn USB support on, and try again.
|
|
|
|
Q: No error messages, but still i2c doesn't seem to work.
|
|
|
|
A: This can happen. This driver uses the pins VIA recommends in their
|
|
datasheets, but there are several ways the motherboard manufacturer
|
|
can actually wire the lines.
