Description Sylvain BERTRAND 2006-10-09 13:45:13 UTC

#modprobe w83781d fails with "FATAL: Error inserting w83781d
(/lib/modules/2.6.19-rc1/kernel/drivers/hwmon/w83781d.ko): Device or resource
busy" error message and the messages log with some debug info follows. Works
fine with 2.6.18.

Comment 1 Jean Delvare 2006-10-09 14:08:28 UTC

Must be caused by this patch:
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=8202632647278eba7223727dc442f49227c040d0
i2c-isa: Fail adding driver on attach_adapter error

This patch is nice for pure i2c-isa drivers, but has an unexpected effect on
"hybrid" hardware monitoring drivers (lm78, w83781d and it87).

Please attach the output of "cat /proc/ioports".

Comment 2 Sylvain BERTRAND 2006-10-09 14:30:03 UTC

Comment 3 Jean Delvare 2006-10-09 23:02:29 UTC

Created attachment 9199 [details]
Let w83781d and lm78 load again

This should fix the bug, please report.

Comment 4 Sylvain BERTRAND 2006-10-11 04:58:11 UTC

Fixed with this patch.
Thx.

Comment 5 Jean Delvare 2006-10-19 02:25:29 UTC
