However, I built kernel with device iic, iicbus, iicbb, but nothing shows. As said, I am doing my 'homework' now - astudying sources, but, as usual, any help appreciated. > LPC just looks like ISA for most intents and purposes, and if we didn't > support ISA, we couldn't boot on i386... > So it means we need either hack pci_isa pridge to recognise and work with geode's LPC bridge or build new PCI - LPC bridge. When I will have some LPC peripheral available, I will do some tests. Until then, i2c support has higher priority - can be tested just now and could bring something when working. Regards, Milan
