Create a openSUSE 13.2 Live CD. As enlightenment doesn't fit on the standard openSUSE CD I'd like to create a Image with it.

open-sTeam is a platform for cooperative work and cooperative learning developed at the university of paderborn in germany. the platform is being used at http://societyserver.org/ and is being developed further.

Want to build a server which can help us to manage some resource. The functions contain : Reserve, Lock, Release, Timer, Change,Add,Cancel,Delete etc.

Turn an android tablet into a drawing tablet

At the end of the project we should be able to use an android tablet as a drawing tablet in our Linux environment.

Plans of the Project

After some time I would like to move KF5 translation ahead again.

I want to understand the basics and architecture of KMS / DRM drivers in the kernel (also in mesa, but this project is more about the kernel-side). I will read docs and attempt to implement a virtual kernel-mode-setting driver (vkms) as described in Documentation/gpu/todo. This would be a KMS driver for a fake modesetting graphics device, just using normal system memory. This can be useful for learning, but judging from dri-developer discussions, also useful for testing hotplug races, plane blending and finding other KMS/DRI infrastructure bugs. Some items to implement:

Lenovo Tab 3 Business is nice piece of hardware with ARMv8 CPU and plenty of memory. It would be nice to try to boot some other OS. 1] collect information about HW and FW

The SMBIOS specification includes an informative annex providing conformance guidelines for DMI table implementations. I would like to write a checker tool to verify the conformance of DMI tables, based on this document. Such a tool could be useful for system firmware writers. We already have dmidecode which is able to locate and decode DMI tables. It should be fairly easy to reuse the same core and add an alternative structure parser, which would perform the checks instead of printing the decoded information.

As you know, SUSE acquired Openattic last year, which is a great storage management system. I want to learn and use openattic during this hack week.

We used trinity to make fuzzing test, but it hard to reproduce bugs. I'd like to try to use syzkaller or other fuzzy tools to find a stable process to reproduce fuzzy bugs.

Sometimes, you want a flexible way to handle certain situations involving C++ exceptions, particularly those for which alternative actions are either easily encapsulated, do not substantially interrupt the program flow, or must cross a foreign-function interface or thread boundary. A useful idiom is to rewrite attempts to perform an action with such forms of exception handling as instead returning a monadic value, like with C++17's std::optional<>:

Eliminate the overhead that usually comes with managing access details and credentials for many hosts in many locations by providing tools to install an 'anchor' service on one publicly accessible server, and a reverse tunnel and authentication synchronization service on each of the hosts one needs access to.

libmarpa is an parsing library based on Earley's algorithm, by Jeffrey Kegler.

There have some kernel mechanisms that they keep symmetric key or password in memory. Those password or key may leak through /dev/mem, kdump, hibernation, bpf print to userland. I want to think a design to:

In the last hackweeks and my free time, I've been developing several tools to various degrees of completion. The purpose of this hackweek is to finish three of them, publish them on github and create openSUSE packages. * finddupmusic

Take the source rpm of a package (e.g. systemd), find the upstream tests, run them, store the results to a database that a web ui can access and display them. Now, do this automatically, for every qam-sle update.

Nightwatch.js is a Node.js based End-to-End (E2E) testing solution for browser based apps. It's based on Webdrive, meaning it's a very reliable way for me to test HAWK UI! It's a great opportunity to learn Webpack, PhantomJS nightwatch and to set up a TDD approach with any new features written with vue.js, the framework which we will be using in HAWK from now on.

OpenStack is, undoubtedly, a really huge ecosystem of cooperative services. Rally is a benchmarking tool that answers the question: “How does OpenStack work at scale?”. To make this possible, Rally automates and unifies multi-node OpenStack deployment, cloud verification, benchmarking & profiling. Rally does it in a pluggable way, making it possible to check whether OpenStack is going to work well on, say, a 1k-servers installation under high load. Thus it can be used as a basic tool for an OpenStack CI/CD system that would continuously improve its SLA, performance, and stability. <img src="https://wiki.openstack.org/w/images/thumb/e/ee/Rally-Actions.png/850px-Rally-Actions.png" width="700">

This is preparation/accompanying project to my school thesis. Fontconfig is library that keeps database of fonts installed in system and gives applications ability to query it. Fontconfig is currently searching the database in naive way and can be quite slow if there is many fonts installed. Most applications make several font queries when starting and fontconfig is slowing down their start.

I freshly bought a small and cheap laptop ASUS 200H based on Cherrytrail. My plan is to install openSUSE on it, and bring it along with my vacation in the following week :)

Rewrite the authboss Go library (authentication engine) for use with JWTs. Clean up existing code. Fix bugs etc. https://github.com/go-authboss/authboss

A common task in L3 is to find a difference between package release X+1 which is reported as broken by customer and X which was working fine. OBS does not provide easy mapping between their revisions and package release numbers. It has "rdiff" command for comparing two packages from different projects, but it does not allow to select only one file or specify different revisions for compared packages. The goal is to prepare script that allows following checks:

Learn enough Rust to be able to collaborate with the servo project (http://servo.org)

• Learn and implement a Memcached like distributed, in-memory, light weight key, value store in GoLang.
• Planning to leverage hashicorp/serf for discovering servers and consistent hashing techinque for storing key,value across servers.

partnerFATE (based on openFATE) is the interface used by our partners to interact directly with the SUSE feature database. It's an important tool and has been a reliable service for years, but could use some updates and enhancements. My goal (if I find time) is to install a local instance of partnerfate to use as a test bed for fixes and enhancements.

The AverMedia LGP Lite (GL310) is a cheap HDMI (with pass-through) to USB 2.0 capture card. The card only supports compressed output (afaik) which makes it slightly less useful but still very valuable when debugging graphical issues. The plan is to hook a few of these up to my test machines so I can stream the output to my workstation and integrate with the rest of my test setup. So far I've discovered that the card needs to be loaded with two firmwares. One for audio and one for video. Hopefully this will turn into a standard UVC device once the initial bootstrap is done fingers crossed. Specifications (From AverMedia webside):

More work on Wolffish prototype here Looking into what a diagnostics view might be (minion stats, ping, etc).

Getting familiar with Limesurvey opensource project. Manipulating with templates via CSS and Java script and understandin the logic behind the survey management system. Finding all possibilities which might be usable in our company as internal survey tool or as a tool for openSUSE board voting etc.

This project was to get familiar with shared memory concepts and boost libraries. The excuse was to create a timer visible in the i3 status bar. INFO

PROBLEM I would like to start growing crops but during summer it gets too hot and sometimes I need to water several times a day. Besides, water is a scarce resource which should be used only when required. Therefore, I would like to have a system that water the plants for me.

• Enlightenment already has some minimal openQA tests but more can be written.
• A extended test Setup using extra repositorys in order to run tests on upstream pre release tarballs and potentially "Nightly/Weekly" builds.

Sonnenhut is a simple Pythong web app that provides basic info useful for planning photographic activities. The current iteration does the job, but it can be improved and extended in a number of ways. If you are interested in photography and familiar with Python, you are welcome to join and contribute to the project.

The goal of this project is to write a proof of concept of a new philosophy for yast2-storage-ng. Instead of just extending the API offered by libstorage-ng, the idea is wrap libstorage-ng so the Ruby code using yast2-storage-ng does not have direct visibility (unless explicitly desired) on the libstorage-ng classes and methods. If you don't know what all that means, keep reading.

Have some knowledge on Dockers , but now taking the next step in understanding and expanding my skill set in containers and kubernetes. Goals for the Hackathon

Create a public art installation around this delete your facebook video. Essential elements are a screen and speaker (loud enough to be heard on a busy street environment but not so loud as to draw noise complaints). Video on repeat. * Perhaps installed in a newspaper box? Maybe The Stranger would want to loan one?

Updates and improvements to the android Skill Shot app. * Update to newest android libs/conventions

Create a belt buckle with integrated cribbage board. * Laser-cut or 3d-print the surface (ideally this would be CNC milled from metal but I think that is too ambitious for this week)

I want to play with Cassandra. The idea is to use Cassandra as the backend of a Job Reporting System. GitHub repository for this project:

The Challenge

I found recently that my DVB-T tunner plugged into Turris Omnia router gets a lot of I2C errors and sometimes divisions by zero. I wasn't able to reproduce it on my openSUSE box with 4.9 kernel so there is good chance that newer kernel contains fix (or it is architecture specific problem).

[Description] I'd like to devote efforts to get the main IO paths of linux network stack from the source codes and related details, such as kernel network initialization/configurations/monitoring/analyzing issues/network traffic scenarios/workloads generating tools/firewall policies, etc.

yast2-storage-ng is a reimplementation of the YaST storage module (yast2-storage) based on the also reimplemented library for storage manager

Since sometime we have limited time to file a bug, especially during daily review of testsuites result. Then some bugs are lake of introduction about what the testsuite are tested, it makes developer take more time to debug this issue. I'd like to find a way to add some description in somewhere convenient to use, when file a kernel function bug.

The new features below were added for the cluster (shared disk) scenario of LVM2 in upstream half year ago. I'm new to LVM2, and have been busy with bugfix things this days. This hackweek

boot: to find logs with both kernel and user-space parts, be able to add debug flags etc. to the failing service configuration... suspend/resume: what services are configured? Something triggered via DBus? How to find? And how to debug that?

It would be excellent if Hackweek projects had a standard way to include URLs for their code repositories, as well as URLs for communication methods like chat and email. This would allow folks who are interested in a project to either lurk a bit to learn more, or directly reach out to the folks running the project. While I understand that you can add these here in the Markdown, I'd like a way that's also programmatically accessible. I'd also like to be able to obfuscate email address in a way that tends to discourage or protect from spammers.

libpsoas is a C++ library for writing Ceph clients. Some of its design goals include:

RabbitMQ is, in this hacker's opinion, hard to run, hard to scale, hard to debug, and difficult to run in a HA situation. ZeroMQ takes a different approach from the centralized broker model, and instead runs a daemon on every machine that needs to send or receive message over the bus, and communicates directly between machines. * Package up zeromq.

Playing around with kvm, libvirt and related tools to setup an easy to use and quickly available test environment on my workstation. Find out which other tools or environments are available on SUSE side, which can be used instead of a local/private solution.

The goals: - Learn enough Java fundamentals to understand OpenDaylight code

kCFI is a tool that enables the compilation of commodity Operating Systems with Control-Flow Integrity protection. kCFI first prototype was developed/implemented during a PhD program held in the University of Campinas, in Brazil. Although fully functional, the tool remains in a very experimental shape, needing to be refactored prior to being released. As kCFI consists in multiple tools, which include compiler plugins, kernel patches and binary analyzers, its deployment is considerably complex. Once code refactoring is finished, the next step consists in setting up proper repositories for the tool and for each submodule, along with scripts and documentation to enable easy configuration and compilation on new environments.

GCC's IPA-SRA pass is run as a regular pass, not as an IPA pass. While this has simplified its implementation quite a bit, it's been creating pass-ordering issues for years now. So, let me try again to make it a real IPA pass, possibly dropping the capability to turn by-reference parameters to by-value ones, but definitely giving it the ability to work on strongly connected components of the call graph. And ending the pass-ordering issues.
