Description

Apache Maven is a build tool used by many Java projects, which is incompatible with OBS in that it tries to download binary dependencies from the Internet. Several people have in the past years tried to somehow bootstrap Maven and failed.

Learning REXX and improve FTPBOOT for installing and testing our S390 builds

Installation time is important as shorter installation allows everyone to safe resources and their time. It also can make better impression when starting with openSUSE and SUSE. And last but not least as we more frequently use openQA, so we do hundreds of installation every week, it even smaller improvement can in the end help SUSE to safe resources and be more green.

Turn an android tablet into a drawing tablet

I want to get started with developing apps for phones and tablets. It is a very general idea, rather open ended.

As we have grown in our remote and non official office at Gran Canaria we had to rent another space. This new office is almost empty and we need a little bit of love to improve the sensation of relax and commodity while we do what we love most.

Using the camsource and vlc packages as an example. If camsource is configured to use a given dev/video[n] device with a choice of resolution in the width and height fields of a camsource conf file then if camsource is the first application to access the device captured images are as-expected. However, if an application like vlc is used for the same device (and exited) before starting camsource (e.g. to check the view from the camera before starting camsource) and if the camera supports higher resolutions than used in the camsource configuration what occurs is that camsource will not setup the camera to use the configured resolution and has a broken view of the camera output based on the vlc chosen resolution chopped to the camsource configuration. For example, with camsource configuration set to use 640x480 on a camera that supports 720x480 and vlc is used and exited before camsource is started then the captured camsource images contain two non-continuous partial image blocks with a horizontal border dividing them. I assume either vlc fails to fully reset the device configuration when exiting or camsource fails to initialize the device "from scratch" when starting. The two applications use different video device APIs but the setup and cleanup for the camera in each case is a very limited part of the application's functionality.

Project Description

I'm totally new in k8s, when I hear Rancher's product in all-hands I couldn't image what's that is. I'd like to take some time to learn some basic knowledge about k8s and Rancher's products.

Project Description

Project Bellatrix

2D space shooter game written in python and pyglet library.

The user space interface of evdev is pretty generic. All hardware abstraction is done in the kernel driver, device properties are mapped to a set of generic properties. The properties can be queried thru a generic interface only very few parameters are set from user space. In user space the evdev API is used by Xorg's evdev driver and libinput.

Following up on Sunday's Kopano deployment workshop at oSC16, I deploy an instance of the FLOSS groupware, collecting important steps in https://w3.suse.de/~bwiedemann/contrib/kopano-setup.sh

I recently bought a Lioncast LK200 RGB keyboard which is a nice piece of hardware and has exactly the look and feel I want. All basic functions work well under Linux. Unfortunately the manufacturer only provides user software to upload/download profiles and control the LEDs for Windows. The device can be configured and operates autonomously from any OS but color setup is a PITA and it's very easy to factory-reset, and lose all config.

libkrun-sev allows running confidential workloads in a lightweight VM within a container. I'd like to experiment with libkrun-sev, the oci2cw image tool, and attestation using reference-kbs.

Enhance the YaST ncurses package installation to show the changelog of a package and the level of supportability (on SLE).

open-sTeam is a platform for cooperative work and cooperative learning developed at the university of paderborn in germany. the platform is being used at http://societyserver.org/ and is being developed further.

I want to learn Erlang and see if it makes sense to use it in the context of High Availability (it would certainly seem like it). As a learning project, I want to try to reimplement my koi project (https://github.com/krig/koi) in Erlang. Koi is a minimal cluster manager I wrote in C++.

Twisted is an event-driven networking engine written in Python.I am very interested in it , Hope after learned Twisted,I can know how to use it and add some small tools or functions in our comparison tool,such as a tool can query information from our machine group uniformly,sent mail or IRC information during test and so on. Introduction of Twisted:https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/

DAPS, the "DocBook Authoring and Publishing Suite" provides a tool set for easy creation and publication of DocBook sources on Linux. DAPS lets you create HTML (incl. webhelp), PDF, EPUB, man pages, and other formats with a single command. DAPS is used and developed by the SUSE documentation team and hosted on https://opensuse.github.io/daps/ .

I have a dusty Rasberry Pi 3 lying around and a book for beginners on the topic. The idea is to read through the book (https://www.amazon.com/Adventures-Raspberry-Carrie-Anne-Philbin/dp/1118751256), learn basic electronics and get an idea what I would like to do with with the RasPi. I also plan to get some inspiration at the Prague Maker Faire this weekend.

****The motivation is create a open source solution, base on this business astronomy products: AZWO Asiair

Project Description

D-Bus is a easy to use message-oriented mechanism that allows communication between multiple processes running concurrently on the same machine. Any application running on the session bus can install a monitor hook over the bus to listen to all exchanged messages. Sensitive information such as mail passwords will be exchanged in plain text. A malicious software can easily listen and parse all those sensitive messages.

Description

Elasto is a cloud storage client project that has been developed across a number of SUSE Hack Weeks.
It currently supports Amazon S3 and Microsoft Azure REST storage protocols, and includes a POSIX like file API.

I have a few ideas of improvements for the delogo filter included in ffmpeg's libavfilter.

Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) is a method of HPC distributed programming developed by University of California - Berkeley. Programs implement the PGAS api via C or C++, and the Berkeley UPC compiler front-end will preprocess the source to be compiled by GCC and linked to the necessary libraries to make it work. PGAS is an alternative to the Message Passing Interface (MPI) generally used, although the UPC coexists well with the various MPI implementations.

Websh is:

Take the source rpm of a package (e.g. systemd), find the upstream tests, run them, store the results to a database that a web ui can access and display them. Now, do this automatically, for every qam-sle update.

Mottainai - Task/Job/Build Server for everyone!

Since commit 556b535 windows can be switched in taskbar order using the mouse wheel. They taskbar buttons can also be rearranged with drag and drop.

RISC-V is awesome, Tumbleweed is awesome, chocolate cake is awesome. I'm planning to combine all of them in one project.

Description

Improve UML handling of segmentation faults in kernel mode. Although such page faults are generally caused by a kernel bug, it is annoying if they cause an infinite loop, or panic the kernel. More importantly, a robust implementation allows to write KUnit tests for various guard pages, preventing potential kernel self-protection regressions.

Project Description

In short, give second breath to http://hall.suse.de/bugs/defects.cgi.

Utilities like git and quilt support customized difftools in some ways. It's would be great if this is introduced to osc for commands like diff, pdiff, prdiff, rdiff, rq --diff, sr --diff.

The plan is to gather ideas about how SUSE can become a more integral part of the local tech community scene (in PRG, NUE, or other locations). As a person who has been involved in educating women about tech for some time, I am thinking of introductory workshops and meetups, aimed not necessarily only at female audience.

I want to use this Hackweek to explore (Functional) Reactive Programming to be able to use it in my day-to-day work.

Openstack Congress provides Policy as a service solution for Openstack based clouds. Policy based fulfillment makes it convenient to write policies for VM migrations and evacuations based on data monitored from various data sources. The aim of the project is to integrate the service to SUSE openstack cloud and evaluate the use of policies as a means to develop HA solutions.

The Nokia N900 is a versatile phone/tablet/mini-computer. While its specs are outdated by today's standards, it's still hard to find something equivalently useful to hack on-the-go.

HTTPBoot was added into UEFI SPEC since 2.5. It aims to replace PXE and provides more features. Actually, the concept of HTTPBoot is similar to PXE. It starts with the HTTP URL from the DHCP server and fetches the data with the HTTP protocol. The key difference between HTTPBoot and PXE is the support of DNS. With DNS, the firmware and the bootloader can resolve the domain name so it's possible to pass the well-known URL to download the image instead of the explicit IP URL. Besides, HTTP is designed to cross different domains, while tftp (PXE) is only for the local network.

Project Description

using perl's Inline::Python module, it should be possible to define openQA test modules in python instead of perl.

Reporting demands on SCC are increasing. Rather than creating hand crafted 'one-shot' reports in response to every request, this project aims to discover whether there is a better way.

Seagate has a "new" hard disk product called Kinetic, this kind of hard disk can connect to ethernet directly and no extra computer system needed. This project is to build a Kinetic Storage Gateway, to export a legacy NAS interface to clients (TV, mobile phone, etc..) and hide kinetic protocol details behind the gateway.

Following on from Gunasekhar Matamalam excellent post introducing k8sgtp i'd like to try to integrate it's output into the Rancher UI via the UI extension mechanism.

Work towards release of Weblate 2.3, the roadmap is in the issue tracker:

Create a public art installation around this delete your facebook video. Essential elements are a screen and speaker (loud enough to be heard on a busy street environment but not so loud as to draw noise complaints). Video on repeat.

Nightwatch.js is a Node.js based End-to-End (E2E) testing solution for browser based apps. It's based on Webdrive, meaning it's a very reliable way for me to test HAWK UI! It's a great opportunity to learn Webpack, PhantomJS nightwatch and to set up a TDD approach with any new features written with vue.js, the framework which we will be using in HAWK from now on.

The idea is getting a general knowledge of how QT Linguist works, and help FET with some translations.

Description

I've been doing a terrible job of maintaining GNU Stow the last year, and there's quite a backlog of bugs, feature requests, support requests etc. So it's a good time to catch up on these.

The idea here is to study and understand how ephemeral storage for containers works and investigate if local storage could be avoided at all and Ceph used instead. Could new storage driver be developed to support Ceph storage:

define data types to collect informations about cameras and lenses to have a shared data store for lensfun and photo editors.
