<p>There are numerous testing tools for the GFX stack available - the oldes being the xtest suite. At the same time, we are still lacking automated test environments for the funktionalities of DRM, Mesa and X. Ideally the tests should be performed automatically and unattended and the results should be compared to previous runs to detect regressions.</p> <p>Research what tools exist to date and how they can be employed.</p>

Look at static code analysis and code coverage for a C++ project, in this case libstorage-bgl-eval. This could include:

In https://github.com/SUSE-Cloud/automation/ we already have mkcloud, which can setup a whole SUSE Cloud on a single host for testing. However, it would be cool, if (instead of a single machine) we could use cloud.suse.de with its capability to add extra networks as requested. This can be pretty easy, as much of the mkcloud code is about making libvirt do the right thing

My car has it, nowadays every smartphone has it. But what's actually the math behind GPS (GLONASS) technique?

We are using various tools, many of them are not yet in Tumbleweed (such as rst2html5, git-pimp and so on), aim of this project is to get them there.

The Atom Editor

There is a pretty nice open source text editor and IDE called Atom,

To say it's a review, it's better to say it's a good way to learn from others. I'll review test scripts in openQA project as much as I can, digest them and learn how to write Perl script more pretty. I'll make some notes for sharing.

Summary

Ever dreamed of being a hero to save the world? Play "The Elder Gecko", an epic fantasy RPG masterpiece!

For our daily work, usually we need to check running result from openQA as a good reference for the quality of a specific build. I'd like to take this chance to make openQA deployed and try to review the test scripts.

[96 boards](96boards.org) are the series open source boards with same size and interface launched by linaro. There are two arm 64bit boards and one sensor kit in my hand.

I want to learn Erlang and see if it makes sense to use it in the context of High Availability (it would certainly seem like it). As a learning project, I want to try to reimplement my koi project (https://github.com/krig/koi) in Erlang. Koi is a minimal cluster manager I wrote in C++.

Elixir is a Ruby-ish dialect of Erlang with meta-programming capabilities, this is my first project using it: pedro . The idea is to create a task manager that would organize tasks (jobs) and manage them in projects. It will be running locally, remotely or both in multi-node setup, will provide CLI, have web UI relying on http and websockets. It makes use of erlang OTP, web framework phoenix that is inspired by rails. Author of elixir and main contributor to phoenix is Jose Valim, he's also the author of devise rubygem and former contributor to rails.

Linux Certification Preparation Preparation for different Linux Certification:

Let's do this :) !!! https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/systemsmanagement:crowbar:master

There is a new kernel API/feature: powercapping. The perfect userspace tool to ease up usage and later possibly provide library calls is cpupower.

CodeMirror is a text editor implemented in JavaScript for the browser, openQA introduced CodeMirror in its source viewer, this project is learn more things from CodeMirror and trying to improving the source viewer in openQA, already had a ticket related, even can polish source viewer more, eg. file folding, etc.

DAPS is the tool used by the SUSE documentation team to generate HTML, ePUB, PDF, ... output of the SUSE manuals from DocBook XML sources. It uses the suse-xsl-stylesheets for this purpose. Currently three different suse-xsl-stylesheet brands exist: SUSE, DAPS, openSUSE. Branding is done by adjusting the xsl-stylesheets directly. It would be desirable to be able to easily change the branding, e.g. via a simple config file in the style of /etc/sysconfig files, since most people cannot hack XSLT. This is also the number one enhancement request we get from DAPS users outside of SUSE.

Checking the status of your Github pull requests is annoying. You have to lose focus from your current work (ie. hacking) and open your browser, type the repo URL in the address bar, click on the Pull Requests page, and look at the status of your PR. This extension makes that process a breeze! By clicking on the Octocat in the status area, you'll have direct access to your favorite repos, and an overview of their PRs' build statuses. Clicking on a certain PR will take you directly to that PR's page.

Micro-service for - making a report

The idea would be to create a qt5/kde5 based utility that can use local raw images as well as download a list of sources from a remote site. The idea is to provide a user interface that can be used by any user as well as a user interface that can be used in kiosk mode for booths so that a visitor can put a usb pendrive in any usb slot, select the image he/she wants to write to it and get it written in parallel to other usb memories. https://github.com/openSUSE/imagewriter seems to be abandoned, so probably part of the backend will be reused and the user interface will be rewritten from scratch, but anyway this will be reconsidered at the first task in the project.

It's just my learning project about Docker, I will research and learn how to deploy and configure Docker and Docker cluster, and also I will try to learn everything related about Docker.

COLO or Coarse Grain Lock Stepping is an High Availability solution that builds on top of Remus, 1. investigate Xen COLO implemention and try to play with it.

Learning REXX and improve FTPBOOT for installing and testing our S390 builds

The Idea

Since some time I am interested in getting better at C++ and learn more about Qt framework. Since I learn best with having a project/goal I came up with this:

This hackweek, we will be hacking on Weblate and adding features that we need to use it as a translation tool for openSUSE! Chief among those is a better permission management that would allow us to assign different rights to different projects, languages, distributions etc.

SCC doesn't require an email address, so could you automatically generate random keys until one matches and effectively 'steal' SCC licenses from customers?

In SUSE Manager we want to offer support for bootstrapping systems that don't have the salt-minion installed and configured yet. This can be done using salt-ssh given just a hostname, username and password. See the docs about salt rosters for even more options. What we are missing: - Support for using salt-ssh in our library

Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) is hardware and firmware technology for remote out-of-band management of personal computers, this hackweek I'd like to spend some time to learn how to setup Intel AMT on my workstation and X201 with VNC enabled.

While programming is occasionally a very rewarding activity, it's mostly a chore and the rest is filled with frustration. Let's teach an unsuspecting youngster program! To fulfill this nefarious goal I've set out to help my colleague without prior programming experience get hooked on programming, starting with python. The student finished an online tutorial and we pair programmed a tiny-fix-turned-massive-change in a tool used by our team.

froxlor Server Management Panel create and start a push request upstream the openSUSE Leap 42.1 configuration tab

The Nvidia Jetson TK1 is an SBC with Nvidia Tegra K1 SoC (quad-core Cortex-A15, 32-bit ARMv7). I have openSUSE running on the Jetson TK1, but KVM is currently not usable as the CPUs are not booted in HYP mode. Thierry Reding of Nvidia has some work-in-progress for U-Boot and upstream kernel that I would like to test.

I'm trying to write a static analyzer for Lua programming language. And I've ready done some parts, say, lexer/parser/AST/types...etc. The challenge part at present, is to write comment-based type annotation, for later type-inference. I plan to implement it in a week. I've spent years on this area. Hope I'm lucky in hackweek.

Create a USB device that, when configured and connected, exposes one or more Ceph RBD images for use as USB storage, allowing for: * Ceph storage consumption by almost any system with a USB port

It is fabulous to get machines from cloud for automation testing, and there are lots of things to learn in cloud. So I will start the cloud journey in this hackweek, to learn suse cloud architecture, various technologies inside cloud, and try to deploy one.
