| --------- |
| |
| Q: |
| You have VT82C586B on the motherboard, but not in the listing. |
| |
| A: |
| Go to your BIOS setup, section PCI devices or similar. |
| Turn USB support on, and try again. |
| |
| Q: |
| No error messages, but still i2c doesn't seem to work. |
| |
| A: |
| This can happen. This driver uses the pins VIA recommends in their |
| datasheets, but there are several ways the motherboard manufacturer |
| can actually wire the lines. |
