Add support for RandR 1.4 (additional GPUs) into KDE display configuration
a project by michalsrb
Plan
RandR is X11 extension for configuring monitors and since version 1.4 also secondary GPUs. These secondary GPUs can either provide additional monitors to output to or can render individual applications instead of the main GPU. (Or even both at once.) Once a secondary GPU is configured to do render offloading, applications can be started with DRI_PRIME=<id> environment variable to actually render on it instead of the main one. There are also USB GPUs (dummy framebuffers) that can be hot-plugged.

Hack the Hack Week tool
an invention by hennevogel
This project is about advancing the tool you're currently browsing. It got started back in Hack Week 9 to retire all the weird tools we've used in the past to track ideas. As you can see it has gone far but is still far from done. There are lots of features missing and bugs to be fixed on github. Get going!
Reimplementation of "quilt setup"
an invention by jdelvare
I would like to change the way "quilt setup" is implemented. At the moment, we call rpmbuild and intercept the calls to tar and patch in order to record the location where archives are extracted and the order and options of the patches which apply to them. Then we replay that record to create our own quilt-compatible source tree.
SUSE Bug Query Engine
a project by LPechacek
In short, give second breath to http://hall.suse.de/bugs/defects.cgi. Long version: Create a generated page reflecting SUSE organizational structure and containing links to useful generated Bugzilla queries and charts like:
bug screening helper
a project by bmwiedemann
The Problem: many bugs filed for openSUSE go to the screening-team by default and often remain there for weeks, so that developers (who would be interested in analyzing or fixing these bugs) do not learn about them. However, the screening process is a hard one
Trivialine - an Online Multiplayer Trivia

Support for WiFi-enabled Canon cameras in gphoto
a project by michal-m
I have a Canon PowerShot S120, which allows for browsing / copying photos over WiFi. There are apps for Android, iOS, and Windows to do that. The protocol uses upnp to discover the camera and the smartphone/computer and them some HTTP-based protocol. I have some code using libupnp for the discovery and a perl script that is capable of transfering one file, but it's far from complete. Plus, I need to refresh my memory, because the last commit is from January :-(. Now, there seems to be some support for such cameras in gphoto already. So the plan is to dive into gphoto and use what I learned about the protocol to fix the gphoto support. If you own some other WiFi-enabled Canon camera supported by the CameraWindow software, let me know.
openSUSE 13.2 ARM hackathon
a project by algraf
openSUSE 13.2 is taking shape on ARM, but we need to make sure we smoothen its edges to make an actual release out of it. The goal of this project is to make sure all devices we should run on actually work and that the last few packages necessary for productive use of ARM devices work properly on 13.2.
Improve the supportconfig database tool
an idea by leonardocf
The tool, developed in previous HackWeeks, is mostly abandoned. The plan is to:
pmpman -> why dont we automate the music on our phone / mp3 player?
a project by osynge
Usecase.
- My phone / media player has less storage space than my music collection is large. I charge my phone / media player via USB attached to my computer. I want it to transfer media to my phone / media player in a non interactive way.
Implement proper RandR support in XFCE
a project by joro
XFCE currently has no support for monitor hotplugging, which makes it hard to use on Laptops with docking stations. This project wants to add support to XFCE to automatically adjust its display setup when the monitor configuration changes.
gfxboot for grub2
a project by snwint
Make a final attempt to implement a graphical user interface for grub2 (gfxboot2).
It's quite some work, unfortunately. Here's what's done so far:
Look at using the boost graph library as main container for devices in libstorage
a project by aschnell
Storing the devices in libstorage as a graph looks like a natural approach. The boost graph library (BGL) could be used here instead of the selfmade iterator over iterator (not a graph) concept currently used. Together with a redesign of the current objects several features would be simple, e.g. using disks for filesystems, renaming LVM volume groups and logical volumes, switching to and from partitioned MD RAID.
AuthStralia — (almost) stateless authorization ecosystem for a web age
an invention by kpimenov
AngularJS, Websockets, REST APIs for mobile apps, one-time links for emails — what’s the topmost complexity all those things share in common? It’s authentication. Authentication typically means sessions, and sessions are simply ubiquitous state for our stateless-by-design web.
Bisect (open)SUSE kernels using prebuilt packages
an idea by michal-m
I have been building an archive of the x86_64/default KOTDs for some months now. It's time to make them available at least internally and write some web frontend to the archive. The frontend could do various things: * Display all packages for a given branch
Markdown extension for Jianpu (Numbered musical notation)
a project by scateu
As we know, we have ABC notation or GNU Lilypond for music staff. It takes ASCII as input and generates music scores and even MIDI format, which is very convenient for people to type music in computer.
Research Testing Tools for GFX Stack & how they can be used in openQA
a project by eeich
<p>There are numerous testing tools for the GFX stack available - the oldes being the xtest suite. At the same time, we are still lacking automated test environments for the funktionalities of DRM, Mesa and X. Ideally the tests should be performed automatically and unattended and the results should be compared to previous runs to detect regressions.</p> <p>Research what tools exist to date and how they can be employed.</p>
QDirStat - Qt-based directory statistics: KDirStat without any KDE, now based on Qt 5
a project by shundhammer
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. Project repo and web site with more details:
