Hello

I need help with reading the MLX90614 ir sensor... When I attach it to BBB 
and run sudo i2cdetect -y -r 1, it slowly looks for i2c addresses and dmesg 
says "controller timed out" every time.

The problem seems to be in the MLX90614 communication, because if I plug it 
out, i2cdetect finds other sensors attached to BBB just fine and rapidly 
without errors. 
I find out that Raspberry Pi has had similar problems and that linux kernel 
version 3.17 does have support for the sensor.

But how to get this sensor working with Beaglebone Black? My distro is 
debian, and the kernel is 3.8.13-bone67.
