By causing trouble - do you mean it doesn't work? I noticed that my system has this message: nxprtc0: RTC clock not running Warning: bad time from time-of-day clock, system time will not be set accurately This shouldn't happen, but I wonder if the iic communication works at all. I likely wouldn't notice if the rtc failed. Maybe there was an initial problem at start as you said. Will reboot it and see what happens. After a reboot the message about the rtc is gone. Have to wait at least a day to see if the Spurious are gone too. -- B.Walter <bernd@bwct.de> http://www.bwct.de Modbus/TCP Ethernet I/O Baugruppen, ARM basierte FreeBSD Rechner uvm.
