Implement >=z10 (s390x) support to QEMUa project by mbenes Last time I checked QEMU lacked support for >= z10 processors. Thus one cannot run SLE12 and newer in a virtual machine on non-s390x host. I'd like to improve the situation during Hackweeks. |
Fix up configurations, pet projects and so ona project by mssola Since I'm already working on a work-related project (https://hackweek.suse.com/14/projects/1388), I decided to also spend some time improving some of my toolbox. This includes configurations, scripts, pet projects and so on. I don't expect anyone to collaborate on this, but if someone is interested to know which scripts, programs and such I'm going to touch, feel free to ping me. |
Free software substitutions for SWizardan idea by rliang06 Rewrite the programs in C (formerly in FreeBasic by myself). |
zypper-docker with multiple backends and an APIa project by mssola During the last CSM workshop I started to refactor zypper-docker in a way that: - The CLI code and the "library" part got split. |
Agilify stale meetingsa project by fteodori Distributed teams, cultural differences, expectations and habits are a natural enemy of vibrant, productive meetings (yes, meetings can be productive!). In this project I'd like to work on a different format and targeted exercises to provide ideas and a resource library to anyone interested in spicing up stale meetings. I am looking for your ideas, problems and examples - Feel free to join! |
SUSE papercrafts - Portusa project by fteodori Sometimes it is hard to promote our project at conferences and events. During this hackweek I'd like to prototype a papercraft for promoting Portus at the upcoming containercon. |
A generic mechanism for analysing and manipulating diverse software configuration filesa project by guohouzuo There are vastly different syntaxes being used by Linux softwares nowadays - Apache, Bind, NTP, Postfix, just to name a few. It is a very tedious task to implement comprehensive parser for every single configuration file, and even more difficult to produce configuration text (file content) from parsed syntax tree. The project tackles those difficulties by presenting an implementation of a universal parser that is capable of: |
mumble-to-sip gatewayan idea by bmwiedemann Sometimes we would like to have ordinary people join our mumble (voice-communication) meetings which is easiest via telephone (or web-browser?). This could use python-pymumble, which allows to build bots that can record audio and playback audio |
Easy openSUSE Upgradea project by maverick74 The idea is about an easy way to allow users to make upgrades (e.g.: changing from one major version like 15.0 to version 15.1) using a GUI and as easy as they can in Ubuntu. Something like a notification with a button to perform the upgrade with just one-click, instead of having to deal with the terminal, that frights some new users and gives them the sensation of an outdated system. |

Assembly Diff Tool for kGrafta project by joro This is about writing a tool to find differences in assembly files generated by gcc. The goal is to find the symbols in a program that have changed by a source code patch. This information can then be used to create and/or verify kGraft patches. |
PXEAT - A PXE management toola project by whdu PXEAT (stand for PXE Administration Tool) is a tool to easily deploy and manage PXE service. It's NOT a tool for automatic deployment. It can enable user to add their own PXE items by themselves, but of course, very limited for security reasons. The tool will be developed with the light-weight framework - flask, as well as a sqlite database. |
Tool to write raw images to USB disksa project by alarrosa 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. |

Bootstrap openSUSE for MIPSa project by a_faerber While in the past MIPS boards were either low-end PIC32 or found in routers running OpenWRT at most, Imagination themselves have recently released the Creator CI20 board (Ingenic, MIPS32) running Debian. And the Shield Pro (previously iGuardian) kickstarter project (Octeon-III, MIPS64) promises to become a playground for testing KVM hardware virtualization. Porting openSUSE to MIPS will involve setting up an OBS instance linked to Factory (update: done) and cross-compiling a set of packages for an initial bootstrap (update: in progress). Maybe this can be scripted to some degree, as there will be some overlap with the ARM ILP32 port project. |
virtio-serial in OpenStacka project by e_bischoff Currently, the usual way to communicate with VM instances in the cloud from outside is ssh. This is okay for most uses, but a) does not work when you mess up with the guest's ability to network and b) requires a free floating IP. I wonder if, for qemu/kvm instances, it would be possible to use virtio-serial possibilities : from the guest, it is seen as a serial port, and from the outside, it is seen as a UNIX socket, or as something else. It is fast, as it does not go through virtualization and device drivers. |
desktop savera project by psladek The idea is to produce a standalone, independent tool to save and restore windows positions and sizes, analogous to a similar feature in KDE desktop. This would be handy in various lightweight desktop enviroments. |
