arm64 set-top-box based workstation
a project by mbrugger
Tronsmart has a Rockchip rk3368 based set-top-box [1]. I want to use it as a arm64 based workstation running openSUSE.
openSUSE on chromebooks (crouton)
an idea by mbrugger
Update for 2018 The only thing missing right now is a i386 Tumbleweed JeOS image. With that we should be good. Any help on that is highly appreciated.
Upstreaming of mediatek helios board
an idea by mbrugger
The only Mediatek "hacker" board available is from 96 Boards [1]. Unfortunately up to now there is nearly no mainline support. Idea would be to improve this situation. The idea would be to get the pin-controller merged first and then hopefully most of the other stuff can be just added (fingers crossed...)
Help with mainline support for the Mediatek chromebook (MT8173 based)
a project by mbrugger
Lately the necessary patches to get rudimentary support for the Mediatek chromebook with a mainline kernel got posted. There are some hacks and I'll work on some good solution to get graphics go, at least.
Add u-boot support for banana-pi r2
a project by mbrugger
Banana-pi R2 has quite a good upstream support in the kernel, but lacks a u-boot support. The idea is to sit down at get working on that. This would be a good starting point to get u-boot support for other Mediatek SoCs as well.
Learn python by building a homepage with Flask
an idea by mbrugger
I thought it would be time to learn a new programming language. I decided to go with python, as it's an all-rounder and I have some basic knowledge on that. The idea is to go through the Flask how-to and from there on start to implement my own homepage. This will introduce me to Python and web development at the same time.
work on sunxi a64 cpufreq driver (for teres-1, pine64)
an idea by mbrugger
With the teres-1 [1] laptop we have a first arm64 device we could use as end-users. Much work to run mainline kernel + u-boot was done already. But power consumption of the laptop is not optimal (~2 hours of battery life time). The idea is to support cpufreq for the A64 SoC upstream, which would enable the teres-1, pine64 and pinebook to run more power efficient. up to now it seems nobody is working on the driver [2].
labgrid: add support for sispmctl and remote ykush access
a project by mbrugger
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.
bare metal openQA for arm boards
a project by mbrugger
Project Description
openSUSE claims quite a lot of Arm boards to be supported. But we lack testing on that boards.
early stage kdump support
a project by mbrugger
Project Description
When we experience a early boot crash, we are not able to analyze the kernel dump, as user-space wasn't able to load the crash system. The idea is to make the crash system compiled into the host kernel (think of initramfs) so that we can create a kernel dump really early in the boot process.
