Writing PC game tests for openQA
a project by clanig
Although availability of computer games on Linux has improved a lot there is way more potential for openSUSE to fire them up. This project is about improving the usability of openSUSE for gaming to appreciate the gamers who run openSUSE as their primary OS. The final goal for a number of improvements is that each gamer can play flawlessly without a single issue.

Investigate and setup internal survey system
a project by rsimai
We often struggle to get feedback from our people, in particular if it's supposed to be anonymous. There are external systems on the Internet which are typically commercial, where (free) usage is limited and situation with GDPR isn't clear. I want us to investigate and find (or found!) an Open Source project that allows to easily collect (internal) surveys.
Linux Memory Subsystem research
an idea by osalvador
Currently I am doing a research about the memory subsystem under Linux, and I would like to seize the opportunity to go on during the HackWeek. The idea is to end up with a paper that explains the memory subsystem from the very beginning (initialization), and then continue with different areas of interest (oom, hotplug memory, page_cache, slab).
perf-bench ipc
a project by dbueso
The state of the art of sysv/posix ipc benchmarking is a combination of ad-hoc programs scattered over the internet. While some mechanisms, such as sysv semaphores, have a lot of coverage, others really lack (message queues), and some are simply non-existent; albeit some of the legacy flavors we aren't too concerned with, other than them being functionally correct. Consolidate all this by taking the good benchmarks and implement new ones where needed, such as message queues, everything around the 'perf bench' framework. This will both improve the lives of us who hack on kenrel ipc as well as improve coverage overall. Eventually mmtests should be updated as well.

Port some classic game to Linux
a project by MDoucha
Let's pick some old classic game, reverse engineer the data formats and game rules and write an open source engine for it from scratch. Some games from 1990s are simple enough that we could have a playable prototype by the end of the week. Write which games you'd like to hack on in the comments. Don't forget to check e.g. on Open Source Game Clones, Github and SourceForge whether the game is ported already.
Preserve SUSE's history

Easy openSUSE Upgrade
a project by maverick74
The idea is about an easy way to allow users to make upgrades (e.g.: changing from one major version like 15.0 to version 15.1) using a GUI and as easy as they can in Ubuntu. Something like a notification with a button to perform the upgrade with just one-click, instead of having to deal with the terminal, that frights some new users and gives them the sensation of an outdated system.
Performance profile and possibly improve Jitsi web client
an invention by mkoutny
Project Description
I run openSUSE TW and FF with i7-5600U Intel CPU. Calls with ~4 (video) participants work but my CPU load is approaching number of cores. In slightly bigger calls (>=6 participants) the CPU load was insufficient and audio packets were being dropped. I'd like learn more about webrtc video streams in order to reduce the client's CPU work or make it more adaptive when running with limited resources.

Get to know SMP on x86 systems better
an idea by alix82
Project Description
In order to learn how operating systems work on a x86 chip, I had written (long ago) a toy OS based on code found on osdev wiki [1]. It allowed me to understand the interaction between the OS and the x86 hardware, and to some extent how the OS handles userspace (I used newlib for some userspace programs). The single-processor OS code later served me well as a base for a course about operating systems I taught at the university.

Motivation
Design/build personal home energy storage system with mid-level components
an invention by okurz
Motivation
I already have photovoltaics installed on the roof of my house. For years I was looking into home energy storage solutions but commercial offers are too expensive to provide a positive RoI so it is necessary to atleast assemble some parts by hand. I don't feel confident to build individual battery packs together and run multiple kWh in my house for years so I am going with "mid-level components", i.e. commercial off the shelf battery systems and power inverter.

80-bit floats support on x86_64 for Valgrind
a project by mfranc
Project Description
Valgrind currently lacks support for 80-bit extended precision floating point arithmetic on x86_64 (long double). The current implementation uses 64-bit arithmetic instead, which means that programs running on x86_64 with "long double" give different results when running under Valgrind and natively. People were asking for support for this since like forever, but to date nobody went on implementing it. It's a project for a year, unless somebody has time to work on it full time, but one has to start somewhere. :-)
A command line image collector tool for my gallery website
a project by AZhou
Project Description
After I start to do photography, I created a website as gallery to show my good photos (<https://gallery.alynx.one/>), I don't want to host such a gallery on my own server because it's only some static images, and GitHub pages is perfect for it. But a easy to use way to submit photos and re-generate the webpage is needed. Currently I write a Telegram bot to do this, it is strange but useful, I don't need to write a whole CMS by hand, just listen to Telegram messages and call the render script.

solar monitor (part 2)
an idea by npower
Project Description
Last hackweek I worked on a solar monitor for our solar installation detail are here. At the time I didn't have a device to load it on but eventually I got a hold of a raspberry pi (and screen). I ended up building yast for it and got it working. Unfortunately I couldn't get the touch screen to work for it with tumbleweed on pi so I ended up using the debian based raspberry pi OS. This works pretty well except for an annoying wrinkle, it seems a long running yast (using our yast python bindings) ui app burns memory and it ends freezing the raspberry pi nearly once a day so now I have a cron job to kill the X server twice a day (just to be sure) so that the monitor UI is restarted. This is probably the most serious issue (and really I suppose needs attention as it affects anything else using the yast python bindings). There are other issues (and bugs) with the solar monitor that I haven't had a chance to investigate that I would love to work on over hack week
