Michael, we need to understand ASAP if we can fix this for the current release - thanks. Yes, Glen, already investigating. Here is the output from when I ran sensors-detect on my home machine (only the applicable parts: Probing for PCI bus adapters... Use driver `i2c-viapro' for device 00:07.4: VIA Technologies VT 82C686 Apollo ACPI Use driver `i2c-voodoo3' for device 01:05.0: 3Dfx Voodoo3 Probe succesfully concluded. We will now try to load each adapter module in turn. Load `i2c-viapro' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): YES modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-viapro Loading failed ()... skipping. Load `i2c-voodoo3' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): YES modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-voodoo3 Loading failed ()... skipping. So it's not just i2c-viapro that's missing, also i2c-voodoo3 is missing. Tim i2c_viapro appears to be listed as "complete but untested" and i2c_voodoo3 as "beta" quality. This is probably why they are not included... If I'm not mistaken, this is a bug report for Redhat 7.0 *BETA*, right? :-) What better way to test them than to put them in? Anyhow, I for one would appreicate that the i2c_viapro.o be put in so that I don't have to re-build kernel RPMs when 7.0 ships. We are trying to build a kernel that we can support. Before we add modules even to a beta, we want to hear a certain level of confidence from the authors. |
