Those "i2c_adapter i2c-0: Transaction error!" messages showed up when
I added the Dxr3 and used the em8300 driver.  The em8300-0.15.2 release
had some changes to make it compatible with 2.6.14 kernels, but I was
trying it under 2.6.15-1.1831_FC4.  After rebooting with 2.6.14-1.1656_FC4
those errors didn't show up anymore.
