I'm not sure if I can help. I still have a couple of GS12's (also with the
Tyan LCD drivers) and I just checked:
Box 1: 2.6.9-023stab016.2 kernel (not an official CentOS kernel)
#> lsmod |grep i2c
i2c_dev 8096 0
i2c_core 18576 1 i2c_dev
Box 2 & 3: 2.6.9-34.EL kernel (regular CentOS-4.4 kernel, current patchlevel)
#> lsmod |grep i2c
i2c_sensor 3521 2 eeprom,lm85
i2c_i801 7885 0
i2c_dev 11329 0
i2c_core 22081 5 eeprom,lm85,i2c_sensor,i2c_i801,i2c_dev
So the module i2c_proc isn't loaded on my GS12's. However, I don't get any
related startup error messages in that regards.
#> modprobe i2c-proc
FATAL: Module i2c_proc not found.
Can you post the output of the commands "uname -a" and "dmesg"? That may help
to troubleshoot it further.
