Nunchuck problem with MWii vers. 1.9

Hi all,
I flied very well till now with my Hexa-X (Arduino-mega) and multiwii code vers. 1.7 and nunchuck modified connected as "stand-alone" selecting #define nunchack in config file.
Now, after switched to new multiwii vers. 1.9, there is no way to receive data fron acc Nunchuk, I see many errors in debug field n. 2.
What's the difference in I2C connection ?
The strange think is that i still have the same hardware, only changed the multiwii s/w from 1.7 to 1.9, tried also 1.8...same result, if I reinstall 1.7 all return good.
Thank guys
Carlo

Have you check your I2C bus? Are the pull-ups correct?

A very common issue where 1.9 is more sensitive to i2c errors. A later 1.9 release activated the debug values.
Search forum - there are lots of discussion about it and the debug values

@ Thorsten,
@ UndCon,
Thanks for reply, I think my pullups are correct as with vers. 1.7 run smooth also in stable mode, so no problem with connection I think.
About 1.9 sensitivity on I2C bus, I think it's "more sensitive" because it take trace of I2C connection problems, but my issue seems that I have totally not the nunchak response.
I saw at the 1.9 code I2C code is slighty different, may be this the problem?
Why installing 1.7 version all runs perfect ?
A mistery for me at this moment, I tried to use the I2C routine from vers. 1.7 in vers. 1.9, but no good results.
I'm waiting for suggestions and look for in forum...
Bye, Carlo

I had a similar problem with my nunchak. It worked for about 5 minutes then it froze. Not so good in flight.
I removed it and got an BMA020. Problem solved.

Ok, I'm waiting for a BMA180 and I hope will solve my issue, anyway, why with sketch vers. 1.7 all is OK and with vers. 1.8 and 1.9 from nunchack no data (or very strage data) ?
Bye, Carlo
