== May 2013 SLUG Meeting - TODAY 6pm - I2C Bus on Linux ==

Summary

 * Date: Friday, May 31, 2013, 6 p.m.
 * Start: Arrive at 6pm for a 6:30pm start
 * Format: TBA
 * RSVP: http://www.slug.org.au/event/265001
 * Suggest or sign up for a talk at http://www.slug.org.au/talks

 Details 

Our main talk will be I2C Bus on Linux by David Lyon.

- Many embedded Linux devices now carry the I2C bus. Here's a presentation  
on how to set up I2C on Linux and how to use it. Demonstration will be on  
the Raspberry-Pi, but the I2C bus also exists on many other systems, such  
as the BeagleBone and Chumby.


As usual, there will also be lightning talks on the night; if you have  
something you want to share, something you found or used or wrote for  
Linux, please do put your name up on the board toward the beginning of the  
meeting.

-- Getting there --

The Google office is the big black building marked Accenture opposite
Star City Pirrama Road facade.

If using the trains, you can go either get off at;

 * Town Hall station, head towards Darling Harbour, walk across the Pyrmont
   footbridge and then follow Pirrama Road towards Star city.
 * Central station, then take the light rail to Star City.

If using the buses, the route 443 stops right out front of the building.

If using the light rail, get off at Star City station and walk across the
street.

If you drive, then you can look for parking on the suburban streets around
the office (or pay for parking at the Casino), and then walk from there.

=== Afterwards ===

We'll be aiming to finish by 8pm and will be heading to the Pyrmont Bridge
Hotel (PBH) afterwards to socalise and eat dinner. The PBH is marked on the
map.
