one-click distribution from web pagean idea by mhocko Maybe this is something we already know but I haven't found it. But found it really cool how Debian can be installed easily from Windows machines. Just have a look at http://goodbye-microsoft.com/ I have learned that our installation CD already can install OpenSUSE from Windows based systems so I think this shouldn't that hard to move this to we based installation. |

Improve retty toola project by jankara Retty is a tool for changing stdin,stdout,stderr of a running process (http://pasky.or.cz/dev/retty/) which may be handy if you want to attach to a process running e.g. from a died ssh session, changing running process to run from under screen(1) etc.. Currently it doesn't work for 64-bit systems and it doesn't handle changing of a controlling tty of a process (which may be possible using setsid() and opening a new tty). The aim of this project it to fix the above deficiencies and package the tool in OBS. |

Design and create SUSE branded IQ lampsa project by kwwii see iqlight.com to understand what an IQ Lamp is. |
Bookworm, the educational toola project by kwwii Create a system to allow a community to add contextual information to "open books". Think wikipedia for books |
Investigate and model Ceph cluster performancea project by LarsMB Predicting the non-functional properties of a Ceph cluster can be quite difficult. There are many inputs in the hardware setup and software configuration that affect the resulting availability, reliability and performance (latency and throughput at nominal levels and during degraded and rebuild times). I want to understand the interrelationship of these parameters better and build a (perhaps interactive) model that allows us to predict the result without the need to build a ten thousand node cluster. |

sar data summary report toola project by tabraham1 provide a summary report of data from a sar data file. Report should be broken down into subsystems - cpu, memory, disk, and network, and provide individual summaries for each device (cpu, disk, nic). |
Ciabatta reloaded: Work on a Heat-driven SUSE demo/QA environment as an OpenStack Horizon plugina project by joachimwerner I want to revive my "Cloud in a Box" project and this time focus on how OpenStack's Heat automation framework can help with setting up a complete demo or QA environment consisting of several SUSE products (e.g. a SLEPOS Admin/Branch/Client environment). Looking for contributors who want to hack OpenStack (especially work on a Horizon UI plugin for managing Heat-based "SUSE blueprints"). |
Testing CRIU and containersa project by tiwai Although I've been maintaining CRIU package, I had little time to play with it recently. It's still interesting especially in combination with various containers. So let's spend (or waste) some time. |
Wireshark hackingan idea by npower AboutThere is a wip dissector for the windows search protocol from gregor beck, I have used it, it's nice but it is missing some things I need. I have no idea about wireshark dissectors, I would like to hack on this and make it more useful to me, |
GCC: finish implementation of predicated value numberinga project by matz2 I'm sitting on old patches that implemented predicated value numbering in GCC by combining the algorithms from http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=512529.512536 |
Android client for bluetooth serial device for car diagnosticsa project by cwh There is quite a popular Android software for connection OBD standard adapters but not for older, brand specific ones. One for pre 2001 VAG cars is this one: |
Optimize kdump speed with 6+ TB of RAMa project by ptesarik The kdump package can now use SMP and multiple targets with constant memory requirements. The goal of this project is to find the optimum parameters for dumping a very large machine (SAP can give me access to 6TB, SGI is able to test with 64 TB). |

Biofeedback / Neuroscanner / Dreamanalyseran idea by chuller This project is based on some hack of a mind flex toy containing a so called "neurosky eeg" chip. Having a sensor connected to your skull this system can meassure several waves emitting from the brain, also called brainwaves. The Idea is to combine this system with some camera based monitoring system that will watch a test subject while sleeping and recording the corresponding brainwaves for later analysis of brainactivity and body movement. Other use cases do exist, this was the only one i could come up with that involves sleeping in the office ;) |
desktop savera project by psladek The idea is to produce a standalone, independent tool to save and restore windows positions and sizes, analogous to a similar feature in KDE desktop. This would be handy in various lightweight desktop enviroments. |
"emerge" for rpm/SUSEan idea by dmacvicar There are lot of packages that can't be hosted on the Build Service. The idea would be a tool where you can say: |

play with Coccinelle and lock checkinga project by mhocko We had a quick course of Coccinelle during the last Labs conference. The tool is really great and I would like to explore possibility of checking lock invariants for particular functions. Julia was really prompt and implemented something that should help but I didn't get to it since the conference. |
try to understand cups > 1.5a project by mhocko Starting with CUPS 1.6 things have changed considerably. Clients are no longer discovering broadcasted printers anymore. Distributions (e.g. Debian) has backported the original protocol into cups-daemon package but this doesn't seem to work either on my laptop. I would like to look and try to understand what the hack is going on here. The outcome should be my understanding of the change and how to configure CUPs to behave reasonably again. |
understand and possibly improve cscopea project by mhocko cscope is a great tool index C/C++ sources and allow to navigate through the code. I have learned that the project is mostly dead and what is worse it uses its own database format to store the index. I would like to see some extended functionality in the tool - e.g. search whether a function A is reachable from B, filtering search results per-file, fix functions with function parameter detection (such functions are not recognized properly currently) and some others. See if the cscope specific storage can be replaced by a more generic database (sqlite?) and understand how the code flow works so that new extensions would be easier to implement. |
finish de-l3slaveing of crash-setupa project by mhocko The primary motivation for crash-setup (created by l3team) is to make kernel crashdumps deployment and crash using as easy as possible. This has been the case for quite some time except the tool was quite l3slave centric. With a great help from tcech the tool is close to be fully usable from other machines and !.de network as well. Let's finish the last pieces. This looks like a very minor project but it will be great to have it finally! |
