MOD-IO RPi-UEXT and Raspberry Pi not working

Hi,

I use MOD-IO & RPi-UEXT and Raspberry Pi with the latest firmware and the Raspbian.

I have done all steps to enable i2c:
sudo apt-get install i2c-tools
sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf

In the file you will see two lines, you need to disable the blacklisting of these by adding a # character before each line:
#blacklist spi-bcm2708
#blacklist i2c-bcm2708

sudo nano /etc/modules
Use your cursor keys to move to the last line and add a new line and then add:
i2c-dev

sudo adduser pi i2c

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

sudo reboot


After this I connect the MOD-IO to the Raspberry Pi. And now it will boot only in save-mode. The solution for that is found in the post: http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=44489

You can prevent safe mode from being invoked by adding the line
avoid_safe_mode=1
to your config.txt file


Now the Raspberry Pi boots again but the MOD-IO cant be detected using
i2cdetect -y 1

But I can't find the problem. Please Help!
