0x00 is actually the broadcast address. I've never seed used so far, but apparently the FS454 supports broadcast messages. BTW, you must be using an old version of i2cdetect. Newer versions don't probe address 0 by default. What about the DDC channel? If there is a screen connected with an EDID EEPROM you should see it on the DDC channel, and then you could test if it has transaction errors as well. > "The FS453 registers are accessed through a serial input/output bus (SIO) > which is I2C*-compatible and SMBus-compatible.

OK, this doesn't sound like any delay is required between accesses then. > Isn't this true i2c here ?

Maybe the i810fb driver is missing an initialization which your system needs. You might want to discuss your problem with the i810fb driver maintainer (Antonino Daplas). You could try the old i2c-i810 driver temporarily and see if it does a better job, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Both drivers use the same helper driver (i2c-algo-bit) for the actual work. I don't have any more ideas, sorry. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ i2c mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/i2c
