I use scx200_i2c. The SBC I am using doesn't work with the scx200_acb (different pins on the cpu after all). I would love to see it reimplemented using the generic interface, since there isn't that many lines of code involved as far as I can tell. Well scx200_acb works fine on a Geode LX board, but not on a Geode SC1200 board. Unless it has been fixed since 2.6.18, then it still doesn't work, but scx200_i2c works perfectly fine. > It also looks to me like i2c-ixp2000 and i2c-ixp4xx are obsoleted by > i2c-gpio.
