Well, these modifications are obscure anyhow.
My board has a higher rise time than the I2C spec(1 us) so it may be the reason for me. It *looks* like a higher dfsr makes the controller tolerate more "noise". Where does the dfsr=1 come from in the first place? It seems random and is very far from HW default. _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
