[unassigned] openSUSE app storean idea by lnussel software.opensuse.org has an app store view. While it looks nice it does not provide the typical promises an app store makes: - apps resp packages offered there match the user's system |
openSUSE on ZoL from OpenZFS projecta project by jkohoutek Idea is to have SUSE system with OpenZFS as root FS. Why ZFS |
Help with mainline support for the Mediatek chromebook (MT8173 based)a project by mbrugger 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. |
Scripts and recipes for setting up VMs with multipath and other compex storage stacksa project by mwilck Customers are using complex storage stacks such as LVM over dm-crypt over MD RAID over multipath over iSCSI and FC with LOTs of LUNs, and we're facing problems in that area which are usually very hard to reproduce. It's also hard to guard against regressions. Being able to quickly and reliably set up VMs with various types of storage / multipath is a key part of testing multipath. It's doable, but cumbersome and has a steep learning curve. I want to create easy-to-understand manual recipes plus scripts that are both easy to understand / customize and deploy. |
Setup E-Mail notification about new or changed SAP Notesa project by AngelaBriel Try to get back an automatic email notification about new or changed SAP Notes. Since SAP has closed down some of their internal servers, which hosted an unofficial database/API to the SAP Notes, the nice email notification service of the SAP LinuxLab is terminated. |
netlink interface for ethtoola project by mkubecek There seems to be an overall consensus that the ioctl interface used by ethtool is a poor design as it's inflexible, error prone and notoriously hard to extend. It should clearly be replaced by netlink and obsoleted. Unfortunately not much actual work has been done in that direction until this project started. The project started in Hackweek 16 (fall 2017) and has been worked on since, both in Hackweek 17-19 and outside. First two parts of kernel implementation are in mainline since 5.6-rc1, first part of userspace implementation (ethtool utility) has been submitted to upstream at the end of Hackweek 19 (2020-02-16). |
openSUSE/SLE/Mainline U-boot for some not-yet-supported ARM64 boardsan idea by ldevulder The Khadas VIM (http://khadas.com/vim/) is an arm64 DIY Set-Top-Box based on Amlogic P212 reference board that use S905X SoC. As Odroid-C2 (based on S905 SoC) is in the mainline U-boot, it should be possible to adapt it for the Khadas VIM (of course a lot of work are needed!). |
grab this: openSUSE beta test program and web applicationa project by lnussel openSUSE Leap 42.3 goes for a rolling release model with automated openQA tests. That covers only so much though. We need manual testing too. In previous releases a google document spread sheet was used to coordinate and track the efforts.That's probably not the best method anymore. Come up with ideas and a prototype of how manual testing could be guided, tracked, visualized for a rolling development distribution with volunteers testing. |
Upstreaming of mediatek helios boardan idea by mbrugger The only Mediatek "hacker" board available is from 96 Boards [1]. Unfortunately up to now there is nearly no mainline support. Idea would be to improve this situation. The idea would be to get the pin-controller merged first and then hopefully most of the other stuff can be just added (fingers crossed...) |
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. |
