With the approach of kernel 5.6 SGI Octanes are supported with builtin IO components. What's missing for a graphics workstation is a driver for the graphics card. There is already a not upstreamed framebuffer driver for Impact graphic cards. Since there will be no new framebuffer driver accepted upstream, the goal of this project is to convert the existing frame buffer driver to a DRM driver and make it ready to be sent upstream.

Learn how to develop and create some plugins/apps for rocketchat. One that comes to mind is to enhance gerrit links which all are enriched with the same text, no matter what you link. A plugin could extend those links into printing some proper info like the patch name so its easier to click on those.

I would like to set up a small backup server on my spare hardware What I have:

Be familiar with the process of writing a test case in openQA by taking a ticket from a QA team.

In a 2-node HA cluster without quorum server, since neither of the cluster nodes (partitions) has more than 50% votes in case of split-brain, we should configure corosync.conf to enable two_ndoe: 1, so that both nodes (partitions) will be granted "quorum". But there'll be potential fencing matches which could introduce double-fencing by chances. The current solution is using random/static fencing delays by configuring pcmk_delay_max/base parameters for stonith resources to prevent double-fencing.

CephFS is awesome, but without a VPN it's not safe to be routed over the internet, and it lacks client support on many platforms. The Linux Kernel Library allows for the linux kernel to be built as a cross-platform user-space library and integrated into a regular Android, Windows, macOS, etc. application. This project combines CephFS, LKL and wireguard, and sprinkles some io-uring on top. My objectives are:

Uyuni is an heterogeneous and giant project (actually it is a beast) made of many pieces, many languages, many internal architecture structures, and also very old and new technologies live in it. Said that, and based on the fact Uyuni delivers tons of features/functionalities not all the end users use, it is not trivial at all to understand

Based on an old customer feature request: zypper history command options so that it can show the security patches installed on a server and when they were installed, during a defined period of time.

There is always something to do if you run the infrastructure for such a big project like openSUSE.... Our Admin wiki currently lists over 80 machines - and while we already "salted" some of them, there is always room for improvement and room to learn something new just by making your hands dirty and diving into the administrator role for a machine.
