early stage kdump supporta project by mbrugger Project DescriptionWhen 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. |
Scripted CardDAV address book modification in PHPa project by holgisms Project DescriptionRunning a self coded PHP application that - among other stuff - manages address data stored in some database. In order to have that address data not just in my application but also in mail clients or on mobile phones, I exported the data to an CardDAV address book of an ownCloud server. But whenever address data within my application is changed or new addresses are added, I also need to modify the data on the ownCloud server. In order to avoid that, I'd like to utilize a simple CardDAV library in PHP to automate that step. |
Switch software-o-o to parse repomd dataa project by hennevogel Currently software.opensuse.org search is using the OBS binary search for everything, even for packages inside the openSUSE distributions. Let's switch this to use repomd data from download.opensuse.org |
Metabase instance in SCC EKS clustera project by digitaltomm Following up on the experiment from last Hackweek ( https://confluence.suse.com/display/~digitaltomm/Business+Intelligence+in+SCC ), it would be great having a production instance of Metabase running in the SCC EKS cluster, connected to the production database of SCC. |
Better default conky themea project by simotek As per the title I am aiming to investigate a much nicer conky default, I have a short list, but it depends on asking people nicely to license there work, if I have to create something from scratch it probably won't happen this hackweek. Now that themes such as Polycore are licensed so they are useable the aim is to build from there. |

Port some classic game to Linuxa project by MDoucha 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. |

HelenOS: <filesystem> of a downa project by jjindrak During the previous Hackweek [0], I have successfully implemented, tested and merged [1] an implementation of the entire C++ standard header <future>. This time, my aim is to modernize the C++14-esque standard library [2] of HelenOS [3][4] with a C++17 feature - the <filesystem> header. The <filesystem> header is much larger than the <future> header which I barely managed to implement and test in the allocated time for the previous Hackweek, but <future> was mostly OS-independent as it relied only on previously implemented features of the standard library. The <filesystem> header, however, is limited by the filesystem API of the OS and as such implementing of the entirety of it might not be possible, limiting the scope of the project (which is a good thing due to the time constraints). The primary features of the header [5] that should be implemented: |
Easy openSUSE Upgradea project by maverick74 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. |
