TecnoAlarm is a house alarm system. The input devices are communicating with the main node of the system via an RS 485 bus. In order to be able to plug in such systems in a house automation system, its communication protocol needs to be reverse engineered.

Taskotop is a tool to check what taskomatic is currently doing on a SUSE Manager server: it's a command line python tool. The core of the tool is to get some info about jobs that taskomatic is running with a fixed time cycle running some queries and showing results to the shell.

Python is well known all over the world and has wide range of usage. Lets dive into to a bit.

Project Description

Let's containerize SUSE Manager! This will open up different (and interesting) scenarios:

By analysing a VNC session, we can create a draft of an openQA testcase (detecting keystroke, mouse click and generating fullscreen needles).

GNOME Software supports distribution upgrade, that only requires a few clicks for upgrading your system. But it's not integrated into Leap. So this is that I plan to do this Hack Week.

Writing code is wonderful, but it gets its real value, when it's released and shipped to the world. You know the mantra: "Release early, release often".

Goal:

During Hack Week 7 I worked on an archive of Qt-based libraries. The goal was to easily make all available Qt libraries accessible to developers. Think CPAN for Qt. So I hacked on a web site and a command line client.

Learn Coccinelle ,we need automatic kernel backporting with Coccinelle.

OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library) is an open source computer vision and machine learning software library.

The software is a rails app with an Angular.js frontend using the gphoto2 library to trigger a Nikon D60 camera.

Simplify the codebase by using a more modern toolkit to accelerate maintenance and future development.

Project Description

The Doc team decided to collect remainders of foreign currencies to donate them to a 3rd world project.

Wicked is a network configuration infrastructure incorporating a number of existing frameworks into a unified architecture, providing a DBUS interface to network configuration.

RISC-V is an open ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) based on RISC architecture. It's originated from UC Berkeley and it's attracting more attention in recent years because of its full open architecture so every developer has opportunities to get involved in application processor design or apply it into different applications, such as IoT, Robotics, ... etc.

Package a basic, stripped down version of sysvinit for emergency cases, so you can repair a failed system without interference. My goal is not to replace systemd with sysvinit again, but to provide a sysvinit-base package that does not have any dependencies at all and can just be installed on any system. sysvinit will only be used in exception situations by specifying the kernel parameter "init=/sbin/init" or something like that. The package will come with the binary, a minimal inittab and a basic boot script that does only the really needed stuff.

Some people prefer LaTeX for creating documents and presentations. The templates provided by Marketing don't include one for Beamer

During the YCP Killer project, Y2R didn't translate most YCP operators and builtins into equivalent Ruby constructs but into library calls. This was necessary to preserve behavior in various edge-case situations, mostly when nil was passed around. The resulting code is often long and hard to work with.

Avahi is (among others) a domain names auto-configuration system for Linux compatible with Bonjour.

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

I already have a [python script][0] processing mails received in the Calendar folder to get the ical event and push it to [radicale][1]. It has several drawbacks:

This is about writing a tool to find differences in assembly files generated by gcc. The goal is to find the symbols in a program that have changed by a source code patch. This information can then be used to create and/or verify kGraft patches.

Project Description

This is about porting the old KDE 3 based KDirstat to the latest Qt 5. KDirStat didn't use that much KDE infrastructure to begin with, and KDE seems to be more and more a moving target.

From a user perspective there are many ways to secure email communication with pgp. Especially the key handling is still challenging non tekkis.
