Linux on RISC-V <https://gtalug.org/meeting/2022-05/> with Drew Fustini
<https://gtalug.org/>
10 May, 2022 at 07:30 PM
It is an exciting time for Linux on RISC-V, the open instruction set (ISA)
that is quickly gaining critical mass. I will introduce the pieces needed
to boot Linux on RISC-V including the Privileged Architecture, OpenSBI and
U-Boot, and how that fits into the upcoming RISC-V Platform Specification.
I will break down support for existing hardware and current upstreaming
efforts.

Evan Leibovitch <https://gtalug.org/>
12 April, 2022 at 07:30 PM
More companies are creating an Open Source Program Officer. Why create this
position? What is it and what do they do? The answer to these quesitons and
more.

*Speaker:* Trevor Woerner
*Topic:* Update Strategies for Embedded Devices
*Location:* https://blue.lpi.org/b/eva-zjc-gjy-kgl
For various reasons, the strategies for performing a software update on an
embedded device have diverged from what is commonly done on the desktop.
This talk will discuss why, introduce the most common embedded strategies
currently in use, and how to employ them.

Location: Virtual - Big Blue Button (https://blue.lpi.org/b/eva-zjc-gjy-kgl)
TOPIC:
The GTALUG executive uses several tools. I hope to introduce those tools
centred around git: git, gitlab (a public host for git trees), and markup
(a simple text markup language for text).

*Topic:* Radio Direction Finding with the Raspberry Pi
*Date/time:* 2022-01-11 T19:30:00
*Location:* Virtual - Big Blue Button (link below)
*Topic description:*
Home-brew pseudo Doppler radio direction finding systems are typically
based on discrete
components. Much of the hardware complexity can be replaced with a
software design, using
minimal external components to the Raspberry Pi. This can dramatically lower the
cost of implementation, provide additional signal processing
capabilities, and provide remote
control capabilities that permit the coordination of multiple units
for instant triangulation.
