Learn Machine Learningan idea by Jeffreycheung Today, people talk about AI and machine learning, I would like to study a bit about this. I have found some blogs and online tutorials which I will take time to study during hackweek. |
Finish my home-made 3D printera project by ilausuch I started 3 years ago creating a CNC, but soon last past 6 monts I realized that I could use it as a 3D printer. The software was good enough, the hardware and firmware had evolved. And now I could print 200x200x300 pieces with 0.1mm precision. But at soon I had this one finished, I decided to create a new compact, silent, light 3D printer. |
Geeky clock face for Fitbit Versa 2an idea by joadavis I recently got a Fitbit Versa 2 smartwatch (thank you wellness incentive) and found there was a clock face that looked like a Linux prompt. Which got me thinking about creating my own. The dev.fitbit.com site looks helpful and worth following their quick tutorial. Mix in a SUSE logo and a tail that curls/uncurls with the seconds and it may become a great way to show off some nerdiness. |
A CI/CD approach for Solid Grounda project by vstsironis Solid Ground is an essential software tool for the daily tasks of an L3 agent. A continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD), and even more a continuous deployment, approach is currently missing from its development ecosystem slowing down its release cycles. Current project aspires to sketch the design principles of such approach and if possible to end up with a functional CI/CD mechanism that will be utilized in the next software releases of Solid Ground. |

Tool to help diagnosing stalling systema project by jankara Diagnosing issues with stalling desktop application (or a whole desktop environment) is difficult these days as the application often requires multiple processes interconnected with sockets, pipes, futexes, etc. to work and often it is not clear which process is the one responsible for blocking the whole ecosystem. The idea of this project is to write a tool that gathers information about processes in the system and for each process that is sleeping display the resource (file, socket, futex) it is waiting on as well as the process that is likely responsible for unblocking (feeding pipe, sending data to socket, unlock futex, ...). Once the information is gathered, we can also plot it for graphical displaying with tools like graphviz. |
Snapshots for jenkins pipelinesa project by ktsamis This issue has been blocked for a while due to time constraints so I want to take Hackweek 19 to work on it. |
k3s: A lightweight Kubernetes for IoT & Edge Computingan idea by clin k3s is a lightweight distribution of Kubernetes designed for IoT and Edge Computing. It works like k8s and it has a smaller package size ( < 40M) so it can be easily deployed. k3s is also optimized for arm64 and armv7 so it can work on ARM machines such as Raspberry Pi or AWS A1 server. In this project I am going to study basic concepts of k3s and understand how it works on ARM platforms. |
SMT solver for AWS Policy decisions in ceph RGWa project by abhishekl Currently AWS uses a SMT solver to decide on public/non-public policies https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/security/protect-sensitive-data-in-the-cloud-with-automated-reasoning-zelkova/ Learn about SMT solvers & see how feasible using a smt solver is for supporting the more minimal policy set in ceph object storage RGW |
Give avahi some lovea project by e_bischoff Avahi is (among others) a domain names auto-configuration system for Linux compatible with Bonjour. The project is to dig into avahi source code to modernize it if possible and fix bugs. |

Rewrite transactional-update in C++a project by fos transactional-update, the application to update read-only systems such as openSUSE MicroOS and openSUSE Kubic and the Transactional Server installations of openSUSE Leap, openSUSE Tumbleweed and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, evolved from a POC to a fully fledged solution - and is currently completely written in Bash. This has been working really well in the past, but is gradually reaching its limits, especially when thinking about supporting additional file systems or ports to other Linux distributions - yes, we have a huge interest in other distributions adopting our technology. A C++ version would simplify those abstractions, but would it also make maintenance of the complete application easier? Check that as part of a POC and refresh C++ knowledge on the way there. |
Work through 'writing a simple operating system from scratch'an idea by zzaimeche I want to learn more about low-level programming and how operating systems actually work. The boot process is currently mysterious magic to me. Read through: |
Design patterns for os-autoinst-distri-opensusea project by ybonatakis The idea is to hack os-autoinst-distri-opensuse infrastucture and explore design patterns that can fit. The end point of this is to restructure the framework in such a way that the main-common.pm is more efficient, functional and readable. |

Smart tool to show current K8s network performancean idea by mosquetero How cool would be it if a Sales Engineer could run a tool in the customer's site that measures the network performance to demonstrate how fast our K8s platform is? What if the customer could do that herself/himself to provide useful information to our support team in order to find the source of a bug? What about using such tool for our CI to discover potential performance regressions? What if the tool was smart enough to change configurations on the fly and run optional tests based on the measurements it collects? It is obvious there is a wide variety of use cases where we could benefit from such tool. I have been learning Kubernetes and go for a few months and now it is time to combine both! This tool will use a K8s controller that will create pods to do the measurements and then fetch the results. Based on those, it will decide to just return those values or change config and run extra tests. |
libuitest - a generic GUI testing librarya project by dancermak Testing GUIs is hard: unit tests require a tremendous amount of mocking and often don't capture the exact user input anyway, integration tests on the other hand are difficult to setup as they often require a dedicated infrastructure with virtual machines.

Rework hwpoison interfacean idea by osalvador Keep working on [1], which reworks the Hwpoison kernel's interface. The goal is to finally have a non-RFC patchset by the end of this Hackweek. |
Test functional package manager for delivering packagesan idea by jevrard During the week, I install guix and analyse how it is possible to improve our delivery processes with functional package managers in mind. |
Getting more knowledge in 3d-printing and designing in blenderan idea by mgriessmeier I own a Prusa i3 clone for two years now (built in hackweek 0x10 I think). It gave me hard times and frustration, so I ordered recently an original Prusa i3 MK3s. |

Investigate options to introduce Plugins to SUSE Managera project by cbosdonnat For years we have been discussing the idea to modularize SUSE Manager. This would enable developers to create their own extensions to SUSE Manager without needing to touch the core repository. There are several frameworks that could be helping in that direction. The goal here is to create a Proof of Concept with the virtualization features moved into an add-on. |
