[openSUSEway](https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:OpenSUSEway) is a Desktop Environment based on Sway - a tiling Wayland compositor. In this talk we would like to present the state of the project, what is our vision, what tools we include and why. We will then go through the new features and improvements that were added by the community in the past couple of years, what we have learned from other simil...

Pagure is a lightweight git centered forge based on Python with a long usage history in the Fedora project. It's well known in the openSUSE project too with an instance on code.opensuse.org. I demonstrate in this talk the current state of the Pagure Plugin system. How I implemented AWS CodePipeline as additional CI type. And how this can serve as blueprint to optimize the Plugin system and add oth...

In the last years we worked hard at automating (technical) IT processes. In the talk I'll reflect what we did, what went well and what didn't work out. We now see that the next big challenges won't be the technical stuff - that's s "solved problem". We face a couple of challenges: - Reducing manual overhead in planning/preparing - Integration in ITSM processes especially change and incident - Auto...

Uyuni is a configuration and infrastructure management tool that saves time, costs and headaches when managing and updating tens, hundreds or even thousands of machines. With automated patch and package management, it enables the deployment of patches and packages based on software channels and repositories that can be assigned. Uyuni makes it easier to onboard and manage any Linux server connecte...

Nextcloud is the most popular self-hosted, open source collaboration platform for a reason. I'll go over some of those reasons, but more importantly, show and tell what Nextcloud can do for you. As home user, small business or big business (but an emphasis on the smaller side of things). Why should you care? A small handful of big tech firms are gathering up the data of nearly everybody on this pl...

The year 2038 problem (also known as Y2038) is a time formatting bug on Unix systems with representing times after 03:14:07 UTC on 19 January 2038. This happens with a 32bit time_t, not with a 64bit time_t. The general statement so far has always been that on 64bit systems with a 64bit time_t you are safe with respect to the Y2038 problem. But this isn't correct: on bi-arch systems like x86-64 (so...

Das"Transsexuellengesetz" ist Geschichte, soweit so gut. Was das neue Selbstbestimmungsgesetz, dass im November in Kraft tritt aber überhaupt bedeutet, was es mit der Anti-Gender-Ideologie von Rechtsaußen zu tun hat, und warum es Geflüchtete, Transfrauen und Menschen unter Betreuung besonders hart trifft, erfahrt ihr bei diesem StandUp-Theory-Theatre. Es geht - nicht nur - um Nazis in der Sauna! I...

Ultimately, packaging is the right way to distribute and run software maintenance. But at the same time, there are very good reasons why in the Embedded world, images are often before package repositories. These reasons evolved over a very long time and did not change since. A number of typical problems, such as software bloat, configuration drift, broken updates etc are unacceptable in embedded s...

Agama is a new experimental installer for openSUSE and SUSE. Although it is under heavy development, it can already install openSUSE MicroOS and Tumbleweed, configuring several aspects of the system like networking and several storage technologies. Agama supports both interactive and unattended installations and can be controlled through a modern web interface, a powerful HTTP API and a convenient...

We have automation tests running in https://openqa.opensuse.org/. we aim to make each test green. jobs may fail if: 1. Product bugs 2. Test issue [we may need to update/fix our test code, needles etc] 3. Infrastructure issues [hardware issues/ network issues/ system upgrade etc] I will like to show you a bit how file a bug report if you finding any product bug. In general, it covers: 1. How to mak...

The **Steam Deck** has revolutionized the gaming handheld market. With the Linux-based immutable **SteamOS**, **Valve** has fostered an **active community** developing mods and alternative systems for this platform. **Other manufacturers** distribute **Windows-based** mobile consoles. However, time and time again it has been shown that **they lag behind Linux** in terms of software support. But **...

Alle reden über die Probleme, die KI verursachen kann, aber wie können wir sie zum Guten nutzen? Elias, ein alter Fusionist und Asperger-Autist mit ADHS, präsentiert „BrAIn Food“ - einen Multimedia-Vortrag, der euch in KI-Genies verwandelt. Es geht um die KI-Kunst, ums Prompts schreiben und KI-Hacks für unseren Alltag, z. B. um Protokolle von chaotischen Treffen anzulegen oder wie die KI Förderant...

openSUSE Aeon is an exciting new take on Desktop Linux, aiming to provide Developers, Sysadmins, and general Linux enthusiasts, a fully functioning Desktop OS without the need for hands on management, tinkering, or any of the other distractions that come with 'traditional' Linux desktops. Leveraging years of experience and development in community and commercial efforts like MicroOS and SUSE Linux...

Since systemd v254 there is the nice feature of "soft-reboot" and since systemd v255 systemd services can survive a soft-reboot. In this talk I will speak about what soft-reboot exactly is, what are the benefits and what are the problems and the status of integration in openSUSE Tumbleweed and MicroOS. Based on this I will also explain how a systemd service can survive a soft-reboot and which requ...

With the advent of Atomic and Transactional systems like Aeon, our development workflow has to adapt to newer paradigms One of which is the use of containers for development. We will see a little introduction to what Aeon is, what Distrobox is, and how to cover all our use cases with it, so to feel at home, in our new containerized environment. [Presentation link](https://github.com/user-attachmen...

RPM packaging is a foundation of the software delivery mechanism on RPM-based Linux distributions, with RPM spec files acting as blueprints for package builds. Despite their enduring relevance, support for editing RPM spec files has not evolved significantly over time, leaving users with rudimentary tooling. In response to this challenge, we have developed a prototype of a language server tailored...

Secure boot on x86_64 is mostly taken for granted, as it is a mature feature in UEFI. When it comes to Arm, the Secure Boot implementation can differ on each platform as there's no standardization. In this session, we will learn the general approach used by vendors to implement a complete chain of trust and how you could use it in openSUSE for your next embedded project. Secure boot on x86_64 is m...

Progressively, there are more and more [risks](https://jarnoduursma.com/blog/the-risks-of-artificial-intelligence/) associated with computer intelligence, and as a transparent software company we at Nextcloud have the responsibility to intervene and protect our users.

The Uyuni project was announced at the openSUSE conference 2018. In this presentation the attendees will be guided into our journey, from the fork of Spacewalk to the ongoing containerization effort that is taking place these days. While presenting the different ways to contribute to the project, the attendees will be also involved in defining how to shape the future of the project. The Uyuni proj...

End of March 2024 we faced the biggest supply chain attack we seen so far in the Open Source Ecosystem. A dedicated attacker had launched a multi year effort to backdoor the xz compression library. openSUSE Tumbleweed contained the backdoor for 3 whole weeks before an outside researcher found it. We will give a report on this attack, our reaction on it and also go into some future considerations t...

openQA is one of the key elements that ensures the delivery of updates and new versions of operating systems, it is the heart of openSUSE's effort to deliver stable systems for our users, and SUSE's quality gate, used to ensure that updates and new releases of the operating systems aren't breaking operations of customers; however it is growing outside openSUSE, Fedora and SUSE, expanding to other...
