Bug 18477 – development-sources apparently have no support for i2c-viapro

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

[Description Guy 2003-03-30 09:17:00 UTC]

In the i2c support section of the 2.5.65/66 kernel configuration, there doesn't
appear to be any support for lm_sensors based upon the viapro.

The vanilla-sources 2.4.20 with prior versions (before 2.7) of lm_sensors do
work fine. The modules used are 'i2c-viapro' and 

emerging lm-sensors-2.7 does not work as the emerge stops with these messages:

==========================================================

Apparently, lm_sensors-2.7 is also not compatible with the development-sources.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

This is actually pretty important to me as I need to keep a strict lookout for
over heating :-)

[Comment 1 Nicholas Wourms 2003-03-30 13:29:24 UTC]

This is a known issue as i2c is getting a makeover.  Check the LKML archives for the discussion.  This probably will be fixed in 2.5.67/68...  Also, 2.5's module code has been redone, so you probably won't be able to emerge any 2.4 module ebuilds...

Since development-sources is vanilla 2.5, I am closing this out.
