Also make sure, the KCS Driver supports 32bit
Boundaries/register spacing instead of 8Bit (Byte) and takes the correct Base
address. If the driver analyzes and handles the SMBIOS record 38 correctly, this
should be no problem.

Below is the details that i got via 'dmidecode' about IPMI interface:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IPMI Device Information
Interface Type: KCS (Keyboard Control Style)
Specification Version: 1.5
I2C Slave Address: 0x10
NV Storage Device: Not Present
Base Address: 0x0000000000000CA8 (I/O)
Register Spacing: 32-bit Boundaries
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here, Base Address is differing than 0xCA2.
Now to install KCS Driver, do i need to make Base Address 0xCA2 ?? If Yes, how can i make it??
Matt,
what say ??
Thanks & Regards,
Rajendra

I am trying to configure IPMI on Dell 2850 machine with 2.4.32.ES3b kernel running on it. I have successfully installed IPMItool on it.
Now I know i need to install following modules in Linux:
- ipmi_msghandler
- ipmi_devintf
- ipmi_kcs_drv
I have installed the first two modules also, but not able to install ipmi_kcs_drv.
Following is, what i got when tried to install ipmi_kcs_drv :
$ insmod ipmi_kcs_drv
Using /lib/modules/2.4.32-ES3b/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_kcs_drv.o
/lib/modules/2.4.32-ES3b/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_kcs_drv.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
I am not able to figure out, what the problem is? Why ipmi_kcs_drv is giving me problem in installing when ipmi_msghandler and ipmi_devintf have been installed successfully?
Can anyone kindly help me, how can i installed KCS driver?? Anyone?
Thanks and Regards,
Rajendra
