+{
+  The practical labs of this training session use the following
+  hardware peripherals to illustrate the development of Linux device
+  drivers:
+
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item A Wii Nunchuk, which is connected over the I2C bus to the
+    BeagleBoneBlack. Its driver will use the Linux {\em input}
+    subsystem.
+  \item An additional UART, which is memory-mapped, and will use the
+    Linux {\em misc} subsystem.
+  \end{itemize}
+
+  While our explanations will be focused on specifically the Linux
+  subsystems needed to implement those drivers, they will always be
+  generic enough to convey the general design philosophy of the Linux
+  kernel. The informations learnt will therefore apply beyond just
+  I2C, input or memory-mapped devices.
