Hi,
I'm trying to access (read/write) an i2c device on my G5. The problem
is, I do not know the right i2c address although I have it from the
device-tree, it's 0x15e.
I read about the i2c utilitiy which requires the iic driver compiled
into the kernel. Done that and it seems it is there:
unin0
iichb0 pnpinfo name=i2c compat=keywest-i2c
iicbus0
iic0 at addr=0
fcu0 pnpinfo name=fan compat=fcu at addr=0x15e
But I do not have this device entry in /dev. Trying to create one does
not work.
mknod /dev/iic0 c 103 0
mknod: /dev/iic0: No such file or directory
This is a netboot environment, might this be the cause of not being able
to create the device?
Or do I have another issue?
Has anyone experience with iic buses on PowerMac or hints on debug
techniques?
TIA,
Andreas
