fun hardware peripherialsa project by michals There are many fun peripherials that you can connect to a RPi but PC users are not left out either * attiny85 <a href="http://www.banggood.com/ATTINY85-Mini-Usb-MCU-Development-Board-For-Arduino-p-971122.html"><img height="48" src="http://img2.banggood.com/thumb/large/2014/xiemeijuan/03/SKU207366/SKU207366-3.jpg"/></a> has SPI and i2c interface so could be possibly used as USB<->i2c or USB<->SPI bridge. Unfortunately, the USB support needs some non-standard timings so there is quite a bit of integration and debugging needed. |

kCFI Releasea project by jmoreira kCFI is a tool that enables the compilation of commodity Operating Systems with Control-Flow Integrity protection. kCFI first prototype was developed/implemented during a PhD program held in the University of Campinas, in Brazil. Although fully functional, the tool remains in a very experimental shape, needing to be refactored prior to being released. As kCFI consists in multiple tools, which include compiler plugins, kernel patches and binary analyzers, its deployment is considerably complex. Once code refactoring is finished, the next step consists in setting up proper repositories for the tool and for each submodule, along with scripts and documentation to enable easy configuration and compilation on new environments. |

Check out hamster-lib time tracking toola record by mwilck I'm using hamster time tracker for personal time tracking and project accounting, and have volunteered to be the maintainer for openSUSE. Unfortunately both hamster 1.x and hamster 2.x are basically unmaintained. The project has been undergoing a major refactoring for a year already, transitioning to a new architecture based on [hamster-lib]. I'd like to explore this, and to check whether it's ready to be packaged for openSUSE to reach a broader audience (I fear not). |

Save and restore desktop window positionsa project by blgardner I switch fairly often from working on my laptop alone to working on my laptop attached to the dock with several monitors, and I have to move my windows around every time I switch. I want a tool to save and load window/desktop location configurations. I've tried a few tools and scripts that either haven't worked or haven't worked to my liking. I propose to create a tool that will work for openSUSE. |
Porting coreboot to Dell Latitude E6230a project by ArchLinux I'm going to port coreboot to the Dell Latitude E6230 laptop and make it work. Dell Latitude E6230 has two SOIC-8 flash chips. The 4M one which contains the top part of the firmware can be read and programmed, while the 8M one is hard to access via ISP. I downloaded a 12MB ROM from a Google drive made by others. |

GJS memory snapshot toolan idea by xiaoguang_wang GJS is javascript engine used by gnome-shell. gnome-shell some time has memory leak from GJS. GJS has GC engine to manage memory. How to find memory leak with GC engine, a better way is to take memory snapshots and diff snapshoots. |
Add support for m3u, m3u extended, pls, and asx playlists to Volumio music player.a project by cwh Volumio is a great, Linux based, open source music player for Raspberry PI and x86. Currently it only supports its own playlist format which is basically a json file. So I want to add support for the main playlist file formats to be parsed and converted to volumio playlists. |
Learn about log-structured file systemsa project by ganghe Compared with traditional file systems (e.g. EXT4, XFS), log-structured file systems treat its storage as a circular log and write sequentially to the head of the log. I want to learn about this kind of file system via this hack week, to understand how it manages its data and metadata, to understand how it recover back from crash, to understand its advantages and disadvantages. |
Loosely coupled integration between SUSE Manager and Machineryan idea by joachimwerner The Machinery project adds one feature to SUSE Manager that even Salt in its current state can not fully provide: You can scan a complete system for all programs, configuration files, users, and services that are present, and compare those over time. The first goal of this hack week project is to create a standalone server (or container) that is going to be the Machinery "collector", and then loosely couple it through Salt, e.g. via a Salt Runner like the Spacewalk Runner or a Salt Proxy. |
My own picture gallery using Flickr APIa project by mvancura 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 purpose of this project is to learn to create such galleries, the best would be to add social features of flickr directly there, like comments or faves. |

Study and try to improve live migration, esp. memory-copya project by fei_Shirley 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. |

study RISC-V proxy kernel and simulatera project by ArchLinux 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. |

yast2-storage-ng: ensure the best layout is proposeda project by ancorgs 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. So I want to invest some time checking if the error is on my side and the code is indeed proposing the best solution and, if that's not the case, improving the decision making of the code. |

Make parted great again!a project by sparschauer During regular L3 work I often don't find enough time to work on the command line disk partitioner parted which I maintain. Changes often directly affect yast-storage(-ng) and libstorage(-ng). @aschnell opens bugs faster than I can solve them. Upstream is often slow and often wants patches differently. |

yast2-network clean up and start a new API designa project by teclator The YaST2 Network module manages network configuration including device configuration, DNS, Routing etc.. The current code is not very object oriented and in many cases there is not a good separation between the business logic and the presentation. The API is also not very clear an many people get confused for example between NetworkInterfaces (class that handles with the ifcfg-files and reside in yast-yast2) and LanItems. |

Add Xen PVH support to grub2a project by j_gross PVH domains are a new guest type supported by Xen being as lightweight as possible (e.g. no emulation of legacy devices via qemu) while taking advantage of the hardware virtualization features of the x86 processor. As there is no BIOS for a PVH domain booting is a little bit different than for pure hardware virtualized guests. To be able to start such a guest a little shim is needed to gather some information about the environment (especially memory layout) before the standard kernel boot path can be entered. By using a boot loader like grub2 this shim can be avoided as the memory information is already known by grub2 and stored into the so called zeropage according to the multiboot protocol. |
Use LUKS UUID in /etc/crypttaban invention by aschnell The the LUKS UUID in /etc/crypttab. In general the file system UUID is already used in /etc/fstab. So using the LUKS UUID in /etc/crypttab is a small step towards consistency and should make the system more robust (e.g. avoid bugs like bsc #1063249). |
