This describes how to use i2c driver via i2c_board_info in the board specific code.

for beagle board i2c device can be added by editing board-omap3beagle.c file located at kernel/arch/arm/mach-omap2.

for example a bq27200 fuel gauge added to I2C -2 by adding following code make sure probe function of bq27200 driver is called ;-).

static struct i2c_board_info __initdata beagle_i2c2_boardinfo[] = {

I2C_BOARD_INFO("bq27200", 0x55),
},
};
