I want to drive SRF08 using I2C Philips' Style Adapter

[vohuynhvu kernelnewbie <vohuynhvu.kernelnewbie@xxxxxxxxx>]

I made an I2C Philips' Style Adapter. I want to use it to drive a
SRF08. After insert 2 module i2c-dev and i2c-philips-par by commands:
       modprobe i2c-dev
       modprobe i2c-philips-par

I found 2 files in the /proc/bus folder: i2c and i2c-0. In the i2c
file I see this line:
       i2c-0     i2c      Philips' Style Adapter      Bit-shift Algorithm

But in i2c-0 file, I see nothing. I know that just because there is no
device register to this adapter. So I wrote a C program to open
/dev/i2c-0 file and want to register a SRF08 have address 0xE4 to the
adapter, this is the code:

#include <fcntl.h>
#include <linux/i2c.h>
#include <linux/i2c-dev.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv){
 int file;
 int adapter_nr = 2;
 char filename[20];
 sprintf(filename,"/dev/i2c-0",adapter_nr);
 if ((file = open(filename,O_RDWR)) < 0) {
  printf("1_ERROR HANDLING; you can check errno to see what went wrong\n");
  exit(1); }

 int addr = 0xE4; 
if (ioctl(file,I2C_SLAVE,addr) < 0) {
  printf("2_ERROR HANDLING; you can check errno to see what went wrong\n");
  exit(1); }
 }


Openning i2c-0 file is OK. But i got the error message in the second
if clause. Please help me how to register a device to adapter, any
inserting module needed by this task? I'm waiting advises from all of
you. Thanks....
