i2c from opencores

ellis summaried,

As mentioned by jdhar there is "A ready made avalon component - no need to do all of this." under:
http://via.fps-tech.org/svn/fpga/cores/i2c_master/trunk/
->
copy the folder and files into a folder in your Quartus project
directory, SOPC Builder will find the component automatically. Add the
component to your SOPC Builder system and connect the signals to some
pins.

Or you can find a sopc v7.2/v8.0 ready component,contributed by longshot, in the project area of nios forum,
OpenCores I2C

The single hdl files, some usefull documentation and programming examples (chapter 6 of "I2C_specs.doc")can be found under:
http://www.opencores.org/cvsweb.shtml/i2c/

The opencore i2c component should be named as "i2c_0" and "i2c_1".
Otherwise you will have to modify linux-2.6/arch/nios2/kernel/config.c.

In your top level design: 
      inout            HC_I2C_SCLK;
      inout            HC_I2C_SDAT;
and for component named "i2c_0":
      .i2c_scl_to_and_from_the_i2c_0 (HC_I2C_SCLK),
      .i2c_sda_to_and_from_the_i2c_0 (HC_I2C_SDAT),

Kernel config,

    [*] I2C support  --->
    [*]   I2C device interface
          I2C Hardware Bus support  --->
    [*] OpenCores I2C Controller
