In the last hackweeks and my free time, I've been developing several tools to various degrees of completion. The purpose of this hackweek is to finish three of them, publish them on github and create openSUSE packages.

Try to use apache-rex framework while testing httpd modules.

Exactly what problem will this solve?

Description

There's already an app but code/features already in Syncthing Tray could be reused to create a nicer app with additional features like managing ignore patterns more easily. The additional UI code for the app could then in turn be re-used by other parts of Syncthing Tray, e.g. to implement further steps in the wizard as requested by some users. This way one "UI wrapper codebase" could serve GNU/Linux, Windows and Android (and in theory MacOS) at the same time which is kind of neat.

Description

Using Ollama you can easily run different LLM models in your local computer. This project is about exploring Ollama, testing different LLMs and try to fine tune them. Also, explore potential ways of integration with Uyuni.

Project Description

The idea is to create and internally host a simple webpage with proper backend code allowing quicker and easier lookup for package maintainers and bug owners from OSC. Nothing fancy, just a page with search box and few radio button parameters to execute the lookup and display the results. Obviously it needs to fulfill security measures when it comes to the access to OSC on the service level and also user access rights to the search page itself (e.g. Okta). Currently the lookup can be done via terminal (which is OK), but there are security measures in place which makes the lookup difficult for some and granting an engineering VPN access just for the sake of this OSC lookup is a bit an overkill for people that do not need it for any other purpose.

Description

With rust 1.9 released, it should be possible to from now on bootstrap rustc from the previous version of rustc (so 1.10 can be built using 1.9 etc.). This means that it should now be possible to create a rustc package which no longer needs binary snapshots to build, meaning that we might even be able to submit rustc for inclusion in openSUSE Tumbleweed.

I had an application can't run on recent openSUSE for some time but it can run on openSUSE13.1 before. So I'd like to have a docker container (image) to run the application and learn some about docker container

1% of SUSE Manager's functionality in 0.1% of the lines of code

The current crash-setup source is located here. Pretty much is working nicely but it doesn't care for the debug source making it impossible to use the crash> gdb list * command right away. This is bug 997558 which should be worked on.

Right now, during the (open)SUSE installation process, the changes to be performed on the storage devices are presented as a list of actions such as:

What I do: learn the virtualization knowledge, get familiar with various ways to migrate guest, know the user's normal scenarios and requirement. Goals: give an introduction or a summary to share, including text and graphics about virtualization and guest migration.

I want to learn JavaScript or CoffeeScript and how to write Gnome 3 extensions. I think that the right task for learning JS/CS could be work on extension for our wicked network manager because I miss some NetworkManager style plugin.

The public cloud is generally not a high availability-friendly environment, with unpredictable I/O latencies and machine stalls, custom tools needed for handling IP assignment etc. The idea with this project is to see if there is any way to leverage the Raft algorithm and booth together with pacemaker_remote for resource management to manage cloud instances and services running in the cloud.

This year I decided to start collecting game consoles and currently they are just sitting on shelves.

I recently got Jeedom working on SLES for Raspberry Pi. However, I'ld love to play more with it like controlling my window shutters. This hackweek could also be an occasion to get as much as possible of the jeedom plugins to work on SLES and openSUSE.

FIPS 140-2 , The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Publication 140-2, (FIPS PUB 140-2), is a U.S. government computer security standard used to approve cryptographic modules. The title is Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules.

As a Caasp developer, I need to learn GO language. While I have an opportunity to learn GO language during HeckWeek,

The Maintenance Coordination, Security and Quality Assurance department documentation is organized and handled on Confluence and there are several pages and how-to available for new team members or other colleagues searching for more information. The processes and workflow documentation is a key asset for on-boarding quickly new employees and for improving existing workflows.

Project Description

I want to learn more about SDN and NFV, so i have started reading some book ASIN: B00WF85208 and prepared a list of things to get deeper into:

Learn about developing a YaST plugin by creating a plugin to manage SSH Tunnels. Creating SSH port tunnels along with corresponding iptables rules is a useful technique for being able to access virtual machines on a remote host that only visible on a private network. Managing and maintaining these connections via scripts and tmux sesssions is less desirable than doing it through a nice UI like YaST.

Most large workloads such as SAP HANA require special, highly optimized configuration to run in a virtual machine. Virtual resources such as memory and CPU must be carefully configured to ensure optimum performance of the virtual machine workload. Default VM configuration created by tools such as virt-install are not optimized and often result in poor performance of large workloads due to memory access latencies and incorrect/incomplete information available to the VM's task scheduler.

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.

The Fuji X series cameras are not well supported in libgphoto2 yet.

Since Kubernetes already has a clear path of "in-tree" volume plugin to CSI migration. I would like to understand the concept of CSI with writing a simple driver for Kubernetes.

The plan is to start working towards a rewrite of xdg-utils in python, focusing on the really bad bits such as dealing with desktop files and mime handling.

Blender is a nice software which needes a lot of practices.

Look once again on Xperia Tablet Z and try to have there openSUSE running natively as alternative operating system.

I intend to work on translation of KDE to Czech language.

I have a Loupedeck CT but it really annoys me that this hardware is unsupported on Linux. I already started implementing some software support for this, and some basic interaction (input events to be precise) are already working. There is still quite some work to be done.

There have some kernel mechanisms that they keep symmetric key or password in memory. Those password or key may leak through /dev/mem, kdump, hibernation, bpf print to userland.

I would like to learn more about something outside of engineering. I have selected to learn more about marketing; something our overall team is doing more of...

Description

My proposal for hack week is to dive into diagramming for the doc(s) team(s) as I've struggled to give it the decent block of time it needs.

Elixir is a Ruby-ish dialect of Erlang with meta-programming capabilities, this is my first project using it: pedro . The idea is to create a task manager that would organize tasks (jobs) and manage them in projects. It will be running locally, remotely or both in multi-node setup, will provide CLI, have web UI relying on http and websockets.

This project is about using Salt SSH for managing systems without the need of an additional agent to be installed (besides sshd). With the SSH protocol the connection is initiated by the management server, thus Salt SSH can be used to even manage systems that are located outside of company firewalls, i.e. machines that cannot access a salt-master due to firewall restrictions.

Background

Given the number of different demands on our time and attention, it becomes increasing hard to focus and find the 'flow state' where a developer can be most productive. Interruptions due to chat notifications, email, and updater applets all break focus. Additionally, the desktop metaphor has in most cases failed to evolve as the browser and other MDI interfaces have become the focus for many users, and increased performance has allowed us to keep more tasks running and present on the desktop at once, presenting a higher cognitive load to the user.

Description

is a new standard for IoT automation. Unlike previous standards it does not require a special radio protocol but can work over plain WiFi.

Talking to people, getting the information about what had happened in the SUSE history, bringing all together to kind of a chronicle. Let's give it a try :-)

Continue development of generic job server in haskell with primary focus on continuous integration and later possibly as support tool for data analysis in semantic file storage server, software configuration engine, etc

This hackweek, i will try to clear some bugs reported against DLP libraries as libvisio, libcdr or libfreehand. I did not have time to work on them since the last hackweek and I hope to add some new features and silence the most annoying bug reports.

I just want to learn how OpenCV works. And having a portable version would be great.

In general plan for YaST is to use ruby only in future. So goal of this project is to move it forward and replace more parts with ruby.

So I have to build a tool for in full automation, when I work on KVM testing. The tool should be base on and compatible QASET (that is used currently in QA team.
