My reply got rejected by mailing list because the attachment was too big.
So I re-send this without the attachment, so that everyone can see.

I searched the DSDT table for "29", but none of them looks like an i2c
address.

But this is the first time I hear about ACPI DSDT table, so I may did
something incorrectly. I did:
- cp /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT table
- iasl -d table
- Search through table.dsl

Best regards,
Nam
