pbbuttonsd hangs on powerbook5,8

[Andy B. <an...@an...>]

Hi all,

On my new Powerbook5,8 i'm finding that all versions of pbbuttonsd that
I have tried (0.6.8, 0.7.x) seem to hang trying to open the /dev/i2c-4
device on my powerbook5,8 running gentoo.

I have both the i2c-dev and i2c-keywest modules loaded, and if i2c-dev
isn't loaded, pbbuttonsd starts ok. 

Here is the tail of a quick strace:


stat64("/dev/pmu", {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0660, st_rdev=makedev(10,
154), ...}) = 0
open("/dev/pmu", O_RDWR)                = 8
stat64("/dev/adb", {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0660, st_rdev=makedev(56, 0), ...})
= 0
open("/dev/adb", O_RDWR)                = 9
open("/dev/i2c-4", O_RDWR)              = 10
ioctl(10, 0x703, 0x42)                  = 0
read(10,


pbbuttonsd will sit there forever, and even if I give it a kill -9,
pbbuttonsd will stay until I reboot, and i have tried recreating i2c-4
using mknod.

I know of another pb5,8/gentoo user who has this issue too. 

cheers,

Andy
