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

Project Description

Following a recent discussion with the Packaging team at SUSE we will do a revamp of https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Packaging

Introduction

Whether it's building a newer, upstream UBoot, EDK II, or merely a SLE based rootfs, I want to make this platform a realistic possibility for desktop, digital signage, labs, etc.

There seems to be an overall consensus that the ioctl interface used by ethtool is a poor design as it's inflexible, error prone and notoriously hard to extend. It should clearly be replaced by netlink and obsoleted. Unfortunately not much actual work has been done in that direction until this project started.

Somebody do something!

What is Qubes OS

Use this hackweek to practice and learn more about Go.

Following up on the experiment from last Hackweek ( https://confluence.suse.com/display/~digitaltomm/Business+Intelligence+in+SCC ), it would be great having a production instance of Metabase running in the SCC EKS cluster, connected to the production database of SCC.

I previously created a semi-auto test script(*) for MOK. The script controls the QEMU virtual machine a pre-setup image and performs two simple test cases. It's tedious to setup the images for every SLE and openSUSE. My goal is to write a script to automatically set up the virtual machines and images and do a full test. I would also like to set up a test for weekly-built OVMF. openQA might be a good reference.

Gang(ghe@suse.com) and Eric(zren@suse.com) will do a functional comparison analysis between OCFS2 and GFS2 during this hack week. we will try to setup a GFS2 cluster environment, compare the features and performance with OCFS2,

I promised to start this project way earlier, but I think Hackweek will be a great time to make a start.

Provisioning works with Autoyast/Cobbler for traditional clients, with profiles to enable major version upgrades. The goal is to offer that in a predictable way that can be scheduled and automated for salt minions.

BPF Compiler Collection (BCC) https://github.com/iovisor/bcc

QA uses a dashboard (SUSE internal: http://qa.suse.de/dashboard/ ) to provide an overview of various data to assess the quality of a product.

Overview

With the recent explosion of product extensions, modules, bases, the decomposition of monolithic base products into modules, and the amount of churn in product composition between releases, the task of calculating product dependencies and migrations between products has approached the complexity of package management. We have a state of the art tool for solving package dependencies, so why not apply it to the new domain?

The supportconfig tool is a great resource for troubleshooting common system issues on SLES but its functionalities might not be enough to troubleshoot other issues related to cloud solutions. I would like to invite you to contribute on this project by creating new plugins/tools to complement supportconfig's great power and ease the troubleshooting process for SUSE Openstack Cloud product.

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.

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.

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.

Summary

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.

Description

Tumbleweed wouldn't be possible without staging projects and managing staging projects isn't possible with a nice GUI. The staging dashboard is there to help but needs some love, esp when comparing

Description

Mottainai - Task/Job/Build Server for everyone!

Yes this project is yet another project for creating a Suse Manager clone.

Currently externaltools is deployed manually with RPM. This is a manual process and involves packaging gem dependencies.

Squeezeboxserver

I have a Flipdot sign that needs control hardware/software. I believe it supports RS485.

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.

Experiment with kite aerial photography

I want to experiment with three things:

There is a super cool framework for mobile phone apps available: ionic (http://ionicframework.com/)

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

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:

Currently we have two sponsored 3D printers available in the Nuremberg office. Both are located in a lab - which makes it hard to access them. Both also need some (hardware) maintenance.

Out of nowhere the idea came up to organize a rum tasting session on one of the HackWeek evenings.

Description

This project undertakes to integrate SUSE terminology from TermWeb into commonly used writing and collaboration tools such as Google Docs, LibreOffice Writer, and AI assistants like Gemini. The goal is to streamline consistent terminology usage across documentation workflows and improve authoring efficiency by providing real-time term validation and suggestions.

Time for technical housekeeping in the shared Gran Canaria office.

Description

Are you interested in pairing? Are you wondering whether it is something that would help you and your team members in your current project? Would you like to try it out before you fully commit to such an extreme idea? Then this is your lucky day Sir/Madam!

We want to improve translation of dependencies done by spec-cleaner (i.e. cmake(blah)) and so on - see github.

Hippocardus is a flashcard bot for Telegram.

First part is to support automated builds on git pushes also with gitlab, similar to what we do already with github.com. This means OBS would get notificated in a save way to refetch sources and start build on each commit.

djmount is a neat idea - see UPnP/AV resources in your directly in the file system. Unfortunately the code hasn't been maintained for ~10y, and - at least for me - seems to by plagued by various bugs causing crashes and what not. There's currently no official openSUSE package. This project aims to pick up the code, fix bugs, and make the tool actually useful again. The code itself seems to be in quite a good shape, so this should be doable.

There are couple of projects I work on, which need my attention and putting them to shape:

Description

Customers need to run applications that have a GUI on the Edge, including touch and keyboards,

The current approach to having new hardware support and features in SLE kernels it to integrate changes to individual drivers from the mainline kernel back into the SLE kernel. The Linux Kernel Backports project (https://backports.wiki.kernel.org/) in comparison has an approach which consists in adding a shim layer between unmodified mainline drivers and older kernel interfaces. This project has its roots in wireless drivers. It currently supports only a handful of old ethernet adapters.

During the last year Askbot, a question and answer oriented internet tool, similar to stack overflow has been tested for internal usage.

The goal of the project is making the gdb able to open compressed kernel dump - access its memory contents at the very least.
