Add more unit tests for libvirt a project by jfehlig I wanted to work on something test related this hackweek since we always need more automated testing of our virtualization-related packages. There are many possible test-related topics, but I think a good addition would be more unit tests that are run during build time, e.g. during 'make check'. Additional tests of this nature would then be run by upstream developers and the various distro CI setups, exposing the tests to more environments than would typically be available within SUSE. To this end, I'm planning to add unit tests to libvirt.git that test conversion of domain XML to structures used by Xen's libxl interface. The first attempt at such tests was nearly 3 years ago Updated about 5 years ago. 1 hackers ♥️.
Finish Making a grub-ipxe package for opensuse like Ubuntu has a project by blarson In ubuntu, you can install grub-ipxe, which adds an ipxe entry to the grub menu. This allows you to easily pxe boot on machines that may not natively support it. You can also use it along with grub2-reboot to remotely re-image a machine. The project has been started here: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:blarson:grub-ipxe It needs to be tested, and polished before trying to include it into opensuse. Updated about 5 years ago. 2 hacker ♥️.
Create a build environmnet for the Windows vd_agent an idea by kallan To support the Windows vdagent, I need to get a mingw environment in place. I plan to do this from a VM. Once the vdagent is built, I want to add it to the VMDP package. Updated about 7 years ago. No love. Has no hacker: grab it!
Linux driver for the AverMedia LGP Lite (GL310) a project by patrikjakobsson 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): Updated about 7 years ago. No love. 1 follower.
ibus-typing-booster - Faster typing by context sensitive completion an idea by sndirsch Try to integrate ibus-typing-booster into openSUSE Tumbleweed. Developer page: http://mike-fabian.github.io/ibus-typing-booster/index.html Updated about 7 years ago. No love. Has no hacker: grab it!
Use Moodle for Training Purposes an idea by ta-ro I would like to try out the Moodle platform (https://moodle.nue.suse.com/) and adjust a training about tech writing for use with Moodle. Updated about 7 years ago. No love. Has no hacker: grab it!
Advance set of icinga plug-ins for SUSE OpenStack Cloud an idea by mcaj We are missing a set of Icinga plug-ins for our cloud. The goal of this project is create a package monitoring-plugins-cloud. The package will contains Icinga checks for different could services and create a easy way how to integrate cloud service status into Icinga monitor. Updated about 2 years ago. 1 hackers ♥️.

Improve Nailed an idea by itxaka Nailed is a great tool for gathering development data. Unfortunately it hasn't seen any improvements in some time and some of the most needed data is not available (PR life, review numbers, open and closed PRs) Updated about 5 years ago. 1 hackers ♥️. Has no hacker: grab it!
Hack partnerfate a project by sbahling 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. Updated about 7 years ago. No love.
