The Nvidia Jetson TK1 is an SBC with Nvidia Tegra K1 SoC (quad-core Cortex-A15, 32-bit ARMv7). I have openSUSE running on the Jetson TK1, but KVM is currently not usable as the CPUs are not booted in HYP mode. Thierry Reding of Nvidia has some work-in-progress for U-Boot and upstream kernel that I would like to test.

ARM64 is become more popular on different markets, but obviously lots of pepople didn't have the hardware platform, and fastmodel is helpful for people to play with ARM64 environment, furthermore, we can run different software platform on it, such as Cloud, HA, Virt and OpenStack.

During hack week I will carry on the research I started to write my thesis. The work is called "Turbulence Driven Clustering in Nematic Active Particles" and will (hopefully) make it into a Physical Review Letters paper.

I have several themes in progress, they all need lots of work before they could be used with openSUSE. * The gtk people keep changing things so the gtk theme I use to match my enlightenment theme also needs fixing.

Currently we use openQA for the the YaST integration tests. It runs YaST in a VM and controls it via emulating keyboard input. The result is checked by comparing the screenshots. This approach has several disadvantages:

Rust Emacs clone (sort of), see README for details.

Deploy an openQA on my locally virtual machine and create 3 openQA test case for nautilus.

labgrid [0] is an embedded board control python library with a focus on testing, development and general automation. It includes a remote control layer to control boards connected to other hosts. My idea was to use this to be able to test my MediaTek boards remotely.

Firecracker is an open-source virtualization technology that is purpose-built for creating and managing secure, multi-tenant container and function-based services.

I want to study GTK 4.0's new feature.

Project Description

A small game in the style of Mini Motorways and Mini Metro but building a Computer Network.

There are issues with S3 and S4 handling in a KVM SLES or openSUSE guest. I'd like to figure out what's going wrong and get things fixed as much as possible.

Although there isn't much demand right now, it won't be long before >256 vcpus in a KVM guest will be desired. Currently, due to 8 bit apic ids only being used the limit is 256. Implement the x2apic infrastructure that will allow QEMU + KVM to break the 256 vcpu barrier.

Using NFC(Near field communication) tag / phone Lock and Unlock ( replace password login ) on openSUSE with Gnome.

The Allwinner Tech Optimus Board by Merrii is the evaluation board for the Allwinner A80 SoC with big.LITTLE Cortex-A15/-A7 configuration (32-bit ARMv7). The sources leaked from Allwinner contain GPL violations in U-Boot and Linux kernel and therefore won't easily build with openSUSE's armhf gcc (binaries seem to be softfp).

Packages added by the dependency solver in order to resolve a user's request, are marked as having been automatically installed. They may later be removed, if no more manually installed packages depend on them (e.g. by zypper remove --clean-deps). However things may go haywire. Automatically installed packages may turn out to be useful, and you may want to exclude them from any automatic cleanup. And vice versa.

While it is important for package maintainers to track the upstream code base activities and backport significant patches in a timely manner, it could be a tedious work when there's hundreds of packages in a project (ahem, GNOME) to follow manually. So I wish to get mail notifications when new commits with certain keywords (e.g. SIG, {crash, hang}{s, ing, ed}, leak(age), CVE-, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=*, etc, etc) come in.

Steps:

1. Try some funny Wireless Display Software

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:

Project Description

Time Slider is a Solaris feature, which utilizes ZFS to provide a graphical way for restoring individual files from automatically scheduled snapshots. Since we have btrfs on SLE/openSUSE now it's probably an interesting project to implement something similar.
