Hi, I tried some combinations of the i2c-i801 and eeepc-laptop driver in the
2.6.28 and 2.6.27.10 kernels I've been using. With both kernel versions:
i2c-i801 + eeepc-laptop: conflict
i2c-i801 alone: conflict
eeepc-laptop alone: normal (no conflict)

I looked around for other hardware monitor software a bit, and tried the XFCE4
Sensor Plugin. It can see a sensor with the type of "ACPI" (power,
temperature), one with "acpitz-0" (temperature), and if the eeepc-laptop is
loaded, then "eeepc-laptop" (fan rpm), and all of them read the same way
regardless of the conflict...

What kind of effect I should see depending on the conflict? I filed this bug
because any such conflict can be the sign of underlying trouble, just need some
direction to see what parts of the system would be affected by it.

Let me know what kind of other info you'd need. I'm compiling the 2.6.26.8
kernel now to check it out with that one.
Cheers,
   Greg
