100% correct

but i2c -s

i just downloaded it and will try - the sysctl for hw. is there.

(i did a git to get the latest current, i’ll try doing an svn update later -its bloody slow)

the hardware is fine, running 12.1 on it works ok.
and also i2c -s finds it.

not really, it seems to me some timming issue.

after a power cycle, and with debug on, all is working.
turning off debug only i2c -s works.

in any case will try the D26049 now.
