Hi,
I've successfully compiled kernel 3.8.x following the excellent tutorial by Robert Nelson. (http://www.eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/iMX233-OLinuXino), but I2C support seem missing (no /dev/i2c-dev device). Is there someone that knows how to add i2c support to kernel 3.8.x?

Thanks.

i2c support for imx23-olinuxino is not in mainline kernel yet. You can find patch on https://github.com/koliqi/imx23-olinuxino. Also search this forum for examples and fixes done by Nii.
