SUSE Hack Week

Sonic Pi on SUSE an invention by wstephenson Sonic Pi is a live-coded software synthesiser for teaching computing via music. It originates on the Raspberry Pi but should be on mainstream Linux too. This project is to clean it up by removing Raspbian hacks, package it and its dependencies and get it running nicely on openSUSE. Sonic Pi uses Ruby to control the synthesiser, and the frontend is written in Qt. Updated about 2 years ago. No love.
Investigate and model Ceph cluster performance a project by LarsMB Predicting the non-functional properties of a Ceph cluster can be quite difficult. There are many inputs in the hardware setup and software configuration that affect the resulting availability, reliability and performance (latency and throughput at nominal levels and during degraded and rebuild times). I want to understand the interrelationship of these parameters better and build a (perhaps interactive) model that allows us to predict the result without the need to build a ten thousand node cluster. Updated about 5 years ago. 3 hacker ♥️.
Bookworm, the educational tool a project by kwwii Create a system to allow a community to add contextual information to "open books". Think wikipedia for books Updated about 5 years ago. 2 hacker ♥️.
Design and create SUSE branded IQ lamps a project by kwwii see iqlight.com to understand what an IQ Lamp is. Updated about 5 years ago. 3 hacker ♥️.
Docker orchestration a project by flavio_castelli Play with Docker orchestration tools like the ones provided by CoreOS, OpenShift and kubernetes. Provide packages for openSUSE and SLE. Updated about 5 years ago. 1 hackers ♥️.
Improve retty tool a project by jankara Retty is a tool for changing stdin,stdout,stderr of a running process (http://pasky.or.cz/dev/retty/) which may be handy if you want to attach to a process running e.g. from a died ssh session, changing running process to run from under screen(1) etc.. Currently it doesn't work for 64-bit systems and it doesn't handle changing of a controlling tty of a process (which may be possible using setsid() and opening a new tty). The aim of this project it to fix the above deficiencies and package the tool in OBS. Updated about 5 years ago. 1 hackers ♥️.
Proof of Concept Support for SUSE Cloud, best practice a project by rsimai With many Proof of Concepts (PoCs) going on for SUSE Cloud, the development team has observed that we have no clear path on how Sales Engineers (SEs) and sometimes dedicated support engineers (xSE) can receive technical support to successfully complete the projects, often leading to escalation calls and even firefighting on-site visits by developers. Goal of that project is to come up with a best practice guide and to eventually set expectations on what's possible from a development point of view. Results should be documented in a central internal location and announced to all relevant parties. Updated about 5 years ago. 1 hackers ♥️.
Create OpenStack packages for aarch64 a project by dirkmueller Create a single node installation of OpenStack with the OpenSUSE OpenStack Quickstart scripts for 64 bit ARM (aarch64). Updated about 5 years ago. 2 hacker ♥️.
Port (part of) digikam to KF5 an invention by alarrosa KDE Frameworks 5 is already quite stable but most big applications have not been ported yet. My plan is to work on digikam (and its libraries, libkdcraw, libkipi, libkface, libkgeomap, kipi-plugins) to port them to use the latest KDE libraries version. To be more precise, I plan to work on the job framework and its thread support since ThreadWeaver's API has changed a lot and after talking with Caulier Gilles (digikam's main author) he was interested in that. This is part of libkdcraw, but if I finish early in the week, I'll continue with another of the libraries. Updated almost 5 years ago. No love.
open-iscsi use of multi-queue to implement MCS a project by lee_duncan The open-iscsi package is the de facto standard Linux iSCSI initiator, but it does not support iSCSI MCS. MCS stands for multiple connections per session, and it means that the iSCSI initiator and target communicate over multiple connections to increase throughput. It is sometimes written as "MC/S". Updated about 2 years ago. No love.
