Good to know :)

Did the i2c module get built? Should be in 
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libi2c.a
There's probably a notice in the log about it, earlier.
Anyway, the i2c code in the driver is unused, I fixed it at some point 
( and apparently didn't commit it ) but all it was ever used for was to 
determine display size and set dpi values.

have fun
Michael
