Dear all,
i am working on Beaglebone (Angstrom linux), i tried to interface Compass Module - HMC6352 to the beaglebone through I2C-3 (available in expansion header P9, pin numbers 19 and 20)
i used i2c commands in the terminal to detect the module.
##i2cdetect -r 3

please help me.. i am looking application C-code for reading the above
module.
Here is some C code[1] for the HoneyWell HMC6352 compass. It is in the
form of a kernel module, but should give you some direction.
If you don't want a kernel driver, then I would suggest using libsoc[2]
to help you write a simple userspace version.
