 I hate showing my poor C programming capabilities but here's some code that uses i2c-dev to read stuff from the ITG3200 and takes an average over 10 readings: I hate showing my poor C programming capabilities but here's some code that uses i2c-dev to read stuff from the ITG3200 and takes an average over 10 readings:

-With some help from LQ forum I realized that it's a bad idea to bulk dump the whole register set, instaad it's better to probe each register separately. The code that follows does not yet make the avarage like the one above bit it takes 10 consecutive readings without having to skip any data.
