4.4. RHEA-2012:0814 — new package: i2c-tools
A new i2c-tools package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
The i2c-tools package contains a set of I2C tools for Linux: a bus probing tool, a chip dumper, register-level SMBus access helpers, EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) decoding scripts, EEPROM programming tools, and a python module for SMBus access.
Note
EEPROM decoding scripts can render your system unusable. Make sure to use these tools wisely.
This enhancement update adds the i2c-tools package to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. (BZ#773267)
All users who require i2c-tools should install this new package.
