Core Project

Project Description

SUSE IT needs help from fellow geekos with release engineering skills to define the requirements, process, infrastructure, and tools for building an openSUSE-based distribution bundled with SUSE IT-supported application stack. The resulting OS build will be offered as a standard distribution for new SUSE employees in addition to the existing Operating System library.

New Development In previous hack weeks, the first few days ended up being wasted on just getting it working. I'm pleased to share that the code quality has improved dramatically since the last hack week and there are now extensive test cases for both unit testing and testing against real vmcores, and we'll use both mypy and pylint (if installed) to perform static analysis. Packages for those are available in openSUSE or as part of the crash-python OBS repo for SLE15. It has been tested with kernels from 3.0 to 5.1.

Learn the inner workings of TCP as implemented in the Linux kernel. This will involve * reading textbooks and IETF docs

Project Description

As I do not work as a developer per se, I love developing new code and learning new technologies that arise in this world. The Rust language is defined as Rust is a multi-paradigm, general-purpose programming language. Rust emphasizes performance, type safety, and concurrency.

Project Description

Plan to learn network related knowledge to benefit to performance test

I'm running a simple home mirror, but I managed to get into a situation where I have to use a bunch of custom excludes. I think we should be able to offer what people want nowadays.\

Project Description

I was talking with a friend the other day who is blind. He briefly explained to me how he reads books (the regular, paper printed ones). So, he is taking a photo of each page, passes that to the OCR to extract the text in digital form, then passes that to some text to speech engine to read it out loud.

Project description

The project Verifree is about GPG key server. The goal is build a Key server, where users are able to

What is linuxboot?

LinuxBoot is a firmware for modern servers that replaces specific firmware functionality like the UEFI DXE phase with a Linux kernel and runtime.

Rancher Support Matrix CLI Helper

A tool to bring the Rancher Support Matrix info into your CLI.

Let's pick some old classic game, reverse engineer the data formats and game rules and write an open source engine for it from scratch. Some games from 1990s are simple enough that we could have a playable prototype by the end of the week. Write which games you'd like to hack on in the comments. Don't forget to check e.g. on Open Source Game Clones, Github and SourceForge whether the game is ported already.

Project Description

I plan to learn how to program for PREEMPT-RT (Real Time) patched Linux kernel on aarch64 architecture. I will use a digital oscilloscope and a raspberry pi to compare preempt vs preempt-rt kernels on aarch64 vs a micro-controller. I then plan to build a 4WD robot utilizing the Raspberry Pi, I2C sonar sensors, DC motor controller and camera.

Project Description

In this project I would like to extend the capabilities of the SLE Release Management Container. This container is used by some colleagues in the SLE Release Management team to have access to osc and other Release Management critical commands inside a container environment. This includes the beta-emails project to send our beta announcements.

Project Description

The goal of this project is to create a lightweight multi-cloud metadata CLI for Public Cloud environments. There are cloud specific packages that exist but they all have different API and many are developed in Python which is quite heavy for cloud images, especially containers. Leveraging a compiled language will help with keeping the CLI lightweight.

Project Description

Let's write a decent replacement for software-o-o. We want to choose the right technologies for the project, as technologies and missing volunteers is where we failed this time.

Project Description

When we experience a early boot crash, we are not able to analyze the kernel dump, as user-space wasn't able to load the crash system. The idea is to make the crash system compiled into the host kernel (think of initramfs) so that we can create a kernel dump really early in the boot process.

Learning boot loader related knowledge

Learn about boot manager, including trusted computing, disk encryption, EFI, storage and more

Project Description

This idea has been partially implemented for JeOS images, where we are collecting some data from the images whenever a new build ends up in openQA. For instance, https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/2419705#step/image_info/9 is collecting the size of the image, as well as total number of RPMs, the list of RPMs with their size and some filesystem information.

Dochazka is a long-term project to replace the obsolete Attendance & Time Tracking system used by the Prague office since 2007. Dochazka is a complex system consisting of three major components: - RESTful backend App::Dochazka::REST (with lots of help from Web::MREST)

Make a final attempt to implement a graphical user interface for grub2 (gfxboot2).

It's quite some work, unfortunately. Here's what's done so far:

The idea is about an easy way to allow users to make upgrades (e.g.: changing from one major version like 15.0 to version 15.1) using a GUI and as easy as they can in Ubuntu. Something like a notification with a button to perform the upgrade with just one-click, instead of having to deal with the terminal, that frights some new users and gives them the sensation of an outdated system.

After nearly ten years of work my minimal widget C library is nearly ready for a use.

Do you need to record podcasts or interviews remotely?

Project Description

Looking for ways to capture hardware-specific data and use them later to predict unexpected behaviors. Tools can be collectd, prometheus-nodeexporter, ipmiexporter , grafana-agent or other.

Project Description

For quite some time I am providing a ResourceSpace container on Docker Hub. It is meanwhile pulled about 234K times but unfortunately still based on Ubuntu. Meanwhile I have updated the base to Ubuntu 20.04, but I would like to move it to openSUSE instead. With ResourceSpace 9.5 coming out soon I see a possibility of introducing this switch. Enno Gotthold also did a great job of packaging ResourceSpace on OBS, so this could be used as a starting point for the container.

Building on the lessons learned in the previous HackWeek, attack the Server specifically to create a set of containers deployable on k3s via Helm.

Project Description

This first part of this project will build a moisture sensor using an ESP32 board and circuit python. I am hoping to implement a notification method using SMS or Email. Additionally, future plans include adding a Web based interface to view historical data as well as optionally adding some mini pumps that will water the plants once a specified moisture level (very little detected) has been reached.

Project Description

There's Elixir for browsing mainline Linux releases. We should set up a similar system for SUSE kernel releases.

Project Description

I started the geekoops project last year for hosting some generic ansible roles for openSUSE.

Project Description

FIDO2 is set of specifications for multi-factor authentication. It is based on asymmetric cryptography with secrets stored in a HW token. The token must support the protocol to be usable.

Status

[Description]: # A simple web package can find openQA jobs/jobgroups which use specific test module [Status]: # In plan

Project Description

We would like to create a single interface for teams to manage our cloud governance.

Background

A dashboard for testing and analysis xfstests results just initial this year. It has a lot of performance issues to fix, and it also needed to add more features to get usable. Also bootstrap looks very easy to use, plan to learn some frontend knowledge for fun.

Project Description

In January, we announced the D-Installer project, an attempt to build a web-based installer on top of YaST and Cockpit. Since then, the codebase has grown significantly, especially the JavaScript part.
