The GPD Win is a Nintendo 3DS XL sized PC featuring a keyboard and gaming controls. Having openSUSE working on it would be great, unfortunately Tumbleweed doesn't work at all on it and Leap 42.2 is lacking many important features.

retro-gtk is a toolkit for GTK+-based Libretro frontends. It is mainly used by GNOME Games to play retro games via Libretro gaming console emulators. Currenly retro-gtk supports only software rendering. There are two ways hardware rendering can be used in retro-gtk:

I'd like a way to have a device on my desk which lights up to indicate that I have something I should be paying attention to. Initially, I'd like this to be for Office365 calendar events and GitHub mentions, but ideally it should support arbitrary messages. The plan is to assign specific colors (ideally "patterns" consisting of a sequence of colors and time) to specific message types. I have a handful of raspberry Pi Zeroes, a couple of OLEDs, a strand of individually-addressable RGB LEDs, a power supply, and some misc electronics (like the 3.3-5v logic level shifter necessary for the 5v LED strand). I'm thinking Python is probably the way to go for the software. I'm hoping OpenSUSE actually works on the Pi zero. :D If not, there's an ESP32 with a built-in display and a few Pi 3s laying around barely used, maybe one of them will work.

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.

Project Description

• Create an automated L0-support-like analytics solution for supportconfig data that is tiered across a customer's environment and SUSE environment (similar to a very modular AIOps Edge-Core approach). A pictorial overview of the ecosystem

Project Description

The DeckLink Mini Recorder 4K is a PCI Express capture card featuring one 6G-SDI and one HDMI 2.0a connection. It can record all formats uncompressed up to 2160p30. The big difference with this card compared to many other capture cards is that it captures all the raw data uncompressed. This allows for it to be used for automatic testing of graphics cards.

A sentiment analyzer is a software that can distinguish the emotion of the text. The programming language will be either python or C++. (This is the first hackweek for this project.)

Project Description

Some time ago I started writing an i8080 emulator as an exercise to learn more about Rust, Emulators and low-level understanding of how CPUs work. I never finished it though. Since the Gameboy is basically a slightly modified version of the i8080 for this Hackweek I want to use the existing skeleton that I have and write a full emulator for the Gameboy CPU.

Project Description

Aldi was/is selling the Medion Life P4000 Smartwatch, which is currently only supported by Medion's proprietary Fitness Pro App. It would be great to add support for this Smartwatch to Gadgetbridge, so that it can be used on a Android Smartphone without proprietary apps.

Yes, those VGA video cards. The goal of this project is to implement a DRM graphics driver for such devices. While actual hardware is hard to obtain or even run today, qemu emulates VGA output. VGA has a number of limitations, which make this project interesting.

OBS studio is free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. As SUSE Ambassador I do a lot of video creation and editing. As Open Source Ambassador I prefer to work with (F)OSS instead of some proprietary standards in the market.

Containerization is here to stay and seems to be the next big thing also in the upcoming OSes releases.

Project Description

There's a project experimenting with verifying GCC optimizations using SMT solvers. Currently there is only one person working on this project. Analyzing compilers with SMT solvers seems like a cool new topic to me. Let's see how we could help.

Project Description

A settings center akin to GNOME/KDE/XFCE settings panel but built for window managers like sway, i3 and hyprland.

Project Description

GameYatra invites players on an adventurous journey through a myriad of games, each presenting a unique narrative and gameplay mechanics. The project aims to provide a fertile ground for learning and delving into game development. This is a personal project to venture into game development. This is going to be a continuous research and development project. Each level is a standalone game, offering a fresh narrative and a distinct gaming experience, all tied together by an overarching quest to reach the top level.

Project Description

I recently used melange and apko to build a from scratch image. The result was a set of auditable and easy to use container and apk repository. The toolkit reduces the work need to make from scratch images with minimal work on the actual docker container(which can be quite painful if you've tried making a from scratch image on your own).
