Since the 2.4.5 RPMs I made are just standard kernel code, no other additions, the I2C stuff won't be there. If you need it, grab the Red Hat / 2.4.2 RPMs, or patch the 2.4.5 kernel yourself with both our XFS patches and the I2C sensor patches. -Eric -- Eric Sandeen XFS for Linux http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs sandeen@sgi.com SGI, Inc.
