Description Christopher Rinderspacher 2004-04-06 11:15:59 UTC

See the output below. i2c is compiled into the kernel. The example is with 2.6.5 but also happened with 2.6.3 on an Athlon64 system.

Despite its complaining I did find the 'non-existent' files in the workdirectory.
For kernels 2.6.x modversions is in build/include/config

the i2c package is for 2.4 kernels only. in 2.6, i2c has been included in-kernel.
