SLE Engineering have a large flatscreen in the shared space just outside of Thorsten Kukuk and Stefan Behlert's office

Build a base image and template (both kiwi and Dockerfile) for openSUSE Leap 42.3 using the native OBS container building feature.

• Setup Tensorflow on OpenSUSE 42.3
• Look for a way to package it

First part is to support automated builds on git pushes also with gitlab, similar to what we do already with github.com. This means OBS would get notificated in a save way to refetch sources and start build on each commit.

This is a UEFI only device where openSUSE does not boot, hanging after loading the kernel and the initramfs even disabling secure boot.

We got a couple of GSoC projects around Jangouts this year:

YaST dumps quite information to its own log file (placed at /var/log/YaST2/y2log). That info is very useful to understand and discover what is happening when an issue appears. All YaST modules write into this log file, and the brand new yast2-storage-ng is not an exception. Some improvements are necessary regarding to the logging of this new module:

The theory behind the partitioning proposal of yast2-storage-ng is that all possible distributions of partitions in the disk are evaluated and the best one, according to this criteria, is chosen. But I have found several examples in which is hard believe that the result is actually the optimal distribution of partitions.

Time for technical housekeeping in the shared Gran Canaria office.

We have a known defect exists in Staging Project process, according to the staging project design(in-ring/non-ring), the requests of a application stack can be dispatched to letter staging and adi staging both, in case the request staged in adi staging relies the request staged in letter staging which may causes sometimes the request in adi staging will not be checked-in at the same round, this leads that application stack have different version in TW and those package had request left in adi staging may does not work well as version unmatched to other library. We see this issue happened on Qt5 stack; KDE Applications, etc. For example: a Qt5 stack update, libqt5-qtbase will be staged in a letter staging however libqt5-qtwebview will be staged in a adi staging, once libqt5-qtbase be accepted that libqt5-qtwebview won't be accept in the same round due to it can not be built before libqt5-qtbase merged to Factory but after - 2-phase update. Therefore we need a way to handle those cases to reduce the gap between Letter staging and ADI staging.

I planned to write a GUI for mokutil since I started the project. I guess now it's time to do that.

When doing the backport, I sometimes spend some time to check if the commit comes from a patch series and list all commits of a patch series. So I'd like to create a tool for doing this quickly.

Aim of this project is to create scenarios for manual deployment using limited feature set of mkcloud. Useful for situations when full mkcloud deployment is broken. It would help qam-cloud team a big time. We can reuse the result later in automation.

The idea is getting a general knowledge of how QT Linguist works, and help FET with some translations.

Functionality

Yes this project is yet another project for creating a Suse Manager clone.

Mottainai - Task/Job/Build Server for everyone!

DAPS, the "DocBook Authoring and Publishing Suite" provides a tool set for easy creation and publication of DocBook sources on Linux. DAPS lets you create HTML (incl. webhelp), PDF, EPUB, man pages, and other formats with a single command. DAPS is used and developed by the SUSE documentation team and hosted on https://opensuse.github.io/daps/ .

since i am learning golang, i will make some contributions for the upstream project we used already @suse

A week of learning, improving and playing with some of the relatively new front-end stacks and patterns.

I'm planning to do some research about RV32E which has only 16 GPRs, but riscv-pk doesn't have RV32E support so that the RV32E aware GCC (https://github.com/kito-cheng/riscv-gcc/tree/riscv-next) cannot build riscv-pk. I'm going to study how the proxy kernel works so that I can do some modification to let it support RV32E.

Problem statement

• learn how to write Dracut modules

Lately the necessary patches to get rudimentary support for the Mediatek chromebook with a mainline kernel got posted. There are some hacks and I'll work on some good solution to get graphics go, at least.

FIPS 140-2 , The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Publication 140-2, (FIPS PUB 140-2), is a U.S. government computer security standard used to approve cryptographic modules. The title is Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules.

Learn Vim by reading book of Practical Vim

I would like to work mainly on https://fate.suse.com/323638, think of default configuration and perhaps create a small configuration script for conky.

This would be a multiple step solution, a first idea that I would explore would be:

How to deploy container - Docker based on SUSE CaaS Platform.

Learning design model can help to produce high quality codes, which will benefit our products.

CaaSP is designed to be used with containers based on SUSE micro OS, using Salt as the management tool. CaaSP2 GMC is available at the moment. I want to spend the hackweek 0x10 to play with it, figure out how CasSP integrate and work with Salt.

Use this hackweek to practice and learn more about Go.

During testing virtualization , I usually met some issue and can not position the issue location (host or guest), so I would like to deeply learn QEMU code, card the work flow, understand communication mechanism between host and guest.

As live migration is widely used in many scenarios nowadays, spend one week time to study it and try to improve its efficiency, e.g. seamlessly migrate with less downgrading the guest. Another challenging part is memory migration, as it involves the dirty memory's detection, record and copy.

Learn how openQA was implemented in details.

While it is important for package maintainers to track the upstream code base activities and backport significant patches in a timely manner, it could be a tedious work when there's hundreds of packages in a project (ahem, GNOME) to follow manually.

Deploy an openQA on my locally virtual machine and create 3 openQA test case for nautilus.

While normally data is passed to linuxrc (including an AutoYaST profile), modern auto-install tools like Ignition from CoreOS support a very interesting method: the QEMU Firmware Config device.

Flickr provides not only a large space for photos but also nice features around, including tags and other metadata allowing sorting of photos by different criteria - but one is very limited in the design of something like "frontpage" of such galleries. The solution is to use 3rd party JS solutions using Flickr API, like nanogallery.

The goal is to create a set of YAML files describing L3 supported products with all metadata we need to store there - and a JS presentation layer automatically showing this data in several forms, one of them will be a part of our L3 documentation.
