Re: I2C implementation on MPC8260

In message [ref] you wrote:

I am trying to get some i2c devices (RTC, EEPROM) to run on an MPC8260
with kernel version 2.4.21.

Use a more recent kernel.

I have seen some fragmented information in the kernel source
documentation and on this mailing list, but it's not clear to me what
parts I can use and what I have to write myself.

Could anyone tell me where and how to start?

The linuxppc_2_4_devel tree on our CVS server has I2C support for the
8260,  and  also  includes  several  I2C  based  RTC   modules.   See

By the way, ALL software projects are done by iterative  prototyping.
Some companies call their prototypes "releases", that's all.
