    1919  An example of a very simple hardware health monitoring daemon. 
    2020 
    21 * prog/detect/i2cdetect (written in C, installed by 'make install') 
    22   This program scans your complete I2C or SMBus adapter for connected devices. 
    23   Syntax: 
    24     i2cdetect 0 
    25   Here the '0' stands for the bus number (run "i2cdetect -l" 
    26   to list all installed busses). 
    27  
    2821* prog/detect/sensors-detect (written in Perl, installed by 'make install') 
    2922  This program tries to detect the available SMBus adapters and the chips 
    3023  connected to them, as well as Super-I/O and misc chips. It also generates 
    3124  modprobe lines and module options. This program is interactive. 
    32  
    33 * prog/dump/i2cdump (written in C, installed by 'make install') 
    34   This program dumps the registers of an I2C device. 
    35   Usual syntax: 
    36     i2cdump 0 0x4c b 
    37   Here the '0' stands for the bus number (run i2cdump with no arguments  
    38   to list all installed busses). 
    39   '0x49' is the device address, and 'b' or 'w' stands for byte 
    40   or word data. 
    41  
    42 * prog/dump/i2cset (written in C, installed by 'make install') 
    43   prog/dump/i2cget (written in C, installed by 'make install') 
    44   These programs are used to write to or read from a register of an 
    45   I2C device. Usual syntax: 
    46     i2cset bus device address data 
    47     i2cget bus device address 
    4825 
    4926* prog/dump/isadump (written in C, installed by 'make install')
