Sazpaimon_ | admiral0, check the ovi store, it was published earlier today | 00:09 |
Sazpaimon_ | apparently vimeo assumes that any device with a screen width or height less than or equal to 480 is a mobile device | 00:10 |
Sazpaimon_ | and doesn't even bother with the flash player | 00:10 |

tehdely | i find it hilarious that people here are getting upset at someone discovering and exploiting a security vulnerability | 00:15 |
tehdely | particularly when he's doing so to satisfy a well-stated need | 00:15 |
tehdely | which is for N9 owners to have full control of their phone | 00:15 |
tehdely | would you prefer that some shady person exploited it and used it to distribute malware, and nobody was ever aware? | 00:16 |

DocScrutinizer | there've been others that discovered it and discussed it for weeks and months if it's a god thing to disclose or not | 00:17 |

itsnotabigtruck | beta4: have you become incepted yet? | 00:28 |
beta4 | I don't think so | 00:28 |
itsnotabigtruck | beta4: https://endno.de/~itsnotabigtruck/inception/ | 00:28 |
beta4 | but first I have to understand what inception is | 00:28 |
kozzi | what does it really mean for an average user ? | 00:29 |
kozzi | how I understand is, it's like jailbreak on ios or android | 00:29 |
kozzi | but what's is the real benefit for it on meego ? | 00:30 |
itsnotabigtruck | kozzi: pretty much - and just like those, there isn't a whole lot to do with it until devs start taking advantage of it from new apps | 00:30 |
kozzi | will it allow, i.e having flash player working nicely with the default browser | 00:31 |
tehdely | not unless you patch the default browser to allow plugins | 00:31 |
itsnotabigtruck | kozzi: not unless nokia open sources the default browser, which isn't too likely | 00:31 |
itsnotabigtruck | but it does allow things like what's listed near the top of the page | 00:31 |
kozzi | man... | 00:32 |
itsnotabigtruck | obviously aegis doesn't present much of a problem for more pedestrian apps | 00:32 |
beta4 | well, firefox seems to run fine on the n9 | 00:32 |
itsnotabigtruck | but there's a number of areas where you start running up to the walls fairly quickly | 00:32 |
itsnotabigtruck | inception lets you scale those walls | 00:32 |
beta4 | it's a bit slower, but... | 00:32 |
kozzi | userscripts supports would be awesome :( | 00:32 |
admiral0 | now that megavideo is no more T.T | 00:34 |

Aranel | itsnotabigtruck: oh, so I can just modify it as I want, nice ^^ | 02:35 |
itsnotabigtruck | the usual aegis rules are still in effect | 02:35 |
itsnotabigtruck | however, it's possible to start with such access and use it to actually disable aegis, or put it in permissive mode | 02:35 |
*** keithzg has joined #harmattan | 02:35 | |
itsnotabigtruck | but that's complicated and not everyone wants that and i needed to launch | 02:35 |
Aranel | It's what we needed from the day #1, at last it's possible now :) | 02:36 |
Aranel | well I'm not really sure about entirely disabling Aegis anyway, it'll do more good than harm if user has rights to reconfigure as he/she wants. | 02:36 |
itsnotabigtruck | sort of...the added security benefit is debatable, but it does at least allow applications to minimize their privileges | 02:37 |
itsnotabigtruck | which could minimize remote exploitability | 02:37 |
itsnotabigtruck | also aegis can't exactly be simply removed without causing a lot of problems | 02:38 |
*** adlan has quit IRC | 02:42 | |
Aranel | itsnotabigtruck: well as far as I understand, it doesn't grant anything to any app without user's consent, I think that's pretty much reliable and secure :) There's no need to grant everything to every app, or being paranoid and blocking creativity. | 02:47 |
Aranel | hope to see creative hack-apps soon :) | 02:48 |
*** smokex|away has joined #harmattan | 02:48 | |
itsnotabigtruck | Aranel: right, installing inception doesn't make the system any less secure | 02:56 |
itsnotabigtruck | the user always decides what to install and has to enter the root password to do so | 02:56 |
M4rtinK | well, I don't thing the user is ever presented with the privileges an Application demands | 03:13 |
M4rtinK | so if a chess application properly demands tracker and camera access, the user won't see it anywhere | 03:14 |
itsnotabigtruck | M4rtinK: right, though the chess app could do so without INCEPTION | 03:14 |
itsnotabigtruck | INCEPTION doesn't change the default behavior at all | 03:15 |
SpeedEvil | I don't think any OS has sane enough granularities. | 03:15 |
SpeedEvil | Any mobile deployed OS | 03:15 |
SpeedEvil | ^phone | 03:15 |
itsnotabigtruck | you have to run the package through 'incept' toengage the bypass and gain the extra capabilities | 03:15 |
itsnotabigtruck | incept demands the user's root password before acting | 03:15 |
itsnotabigtruck | so, if you've got a chess app and the developer wants you to incept it, be suspicious | 03:16 |
M4rtinK | I was just commenting on how the current Aegis privilege implementation is a bit absurd :) | 03:16 |
itsnotabigtruck | oh, right | 03:16 |
M4rtinK | BTW, good job with Inception ! :) | 03:17 |
itsnotabigtruck | yeah, it seems like one of the major gains, if not the gain, from this sort of privilege system is to be able to know what your apps can do | 03:17 |
itsnotabigtruck | and aegis *could* do that, but atm there's no gui whatsoever to display it | 03:17 |
SpeedEvil | It's not absurd - if the ovi people were addressing capabilities. | 03:17 |
Tronic | Are you going to include aegis unseal as well? | 03:17 |
itsnotabigtruck | Tronic: well, aegis unseal doesn't exist yet for PR1.2...fortunately the source is out now | 03:17 |
itsnotabigtruck | i'm not going to include it with inception, but the intention is to have it available so it can be incepted if desired | 03:18 |
Tronic | I am interested on possibly performance benefit of disabling all the verification. | 03:18 |
M4rtinK | yaeh - could be just seen as metadata for Ovi people | 03:18 |
M4rtinK | I remember djszapi mentioning the N9 booting in 2s without Aegis :) | 03:19 |
Tronic | Overclocking is another "hot" thing for me, for the same reasons. I want to device running faster :) | 03:19 |
Tronic | *the device | 03:19 |
virtuald | overclocking a fanless device? | 03:20 |
itsnotabigtruck | remember that the omap has a spec range of 600 mhz to 1.2 ghz | 03:21 |
itsnotabigtruck | and it's already at 1 ghz | 03:21 |
Tronic | virtuald: N900 could be overclocked from the default 600 MHz to 1150 MHz (and yes, perfectly stable on some of the devices), roughly doubling the speed of it. | 03:21 |
itsnotabigtruck | of course you could exceed the spec (unless you can't?) but there's not much envelope left to push | 03:21 |
virtuald | tronic: what about heat? | 03:22 |
Tronic | virtuald: The GUI animations went from jerky to smooth thanks to overclocking. Heavy 3D games would run at almost twice the FPS. | 03:22 |
*** hardaker has quit IRC | 03:22 | |
Tronic | virtuald: The heat is not an issue as the total power usage of the CPU is very low on these devices. | 03:22 |
virtuald | are you sure about that? | 03:22 |
itsnotabigtruck | yeah, but 600 to 1150 is a much bigger deal than, say, 1000 to 1150 | 03:22 |
M4rtinK | well, at least the N950 is made from aluminium :) | 03:23 |
*** adlan has joined #harmattan | 03:23 | |
Tronic | Battery usage would be the real concern but it isn't such a big issue either as even when overclocked the CPU doesn't use that much more juice (and it still uses far less than 3G communications for instance). Also, most of the time your device will be idling and the CPU will be underclocked & in sleep mode anyway. | 03:23 |
M4rtinK | also, the HP Touchpad can be safely overclocked from the stock 1200 MHz to 1750 without a hitch | 03:24 |
M4rtinK | it uses a pretty different SOC though | 03:25 |
Tronic | Another issue with overclocking is that it might not be stable if you go too high. Not every unit of N900 could do the maximum frequency and if you overclocked it higher than what your hardware was capable of, you would get random reboots from time to time. | 03:26 |
luke-jr | the real issue is lifetime | 03:26 |
luke-jr | even at 600 MHz, you're lucky if it lasts longer than a year | 03:27 |
Tronic | The overclocking software was smart enough to revert back to the default settings (no overclocking) if the phone had spuriously rebooted instead of being properly shut down. | 03:27 |
itsnotabigtruck | luke-jr: really? i thought the big hw problem with the n900 was the usb port, not heat dissipation | 03:27 |
*** aquarius has quit IRC | 03:27 | |
itsnotabigtruck | if the default speed really burns out in a year, everybody's N900s should be kaputt by now | 03:27 |
Tronic | So, I haven't heard of anyone even having to reflash their N900 due to failed overclocking. | 03:28 |
javispedro | a year in poweron hours | 03:28 |
SpeedEvil | itsnotabigtruck: The clock goes off >90% of the time or so when the screen is blank. | 03:28 |
Tronic | Also, I haven't heard of CPUs getting broken on N900. The USB ports do and also there have been problems with display, headphone jack and other components. | 03:28 |
M4rtinK | I've been running my N900 at 900 MHz for at least a year and a half already | 03:29 |
M4rtinK | no issues so far | 03:29 |
javispedro | well I do know about lots of emmc chip problems | 03:29 |
javispedro | and there are a few cases of broken devices that have been raised to death in the already too many many overclocking usefulness arguing threads | 03:30 |
javispedro | *broken SoCs | 03:30 |
Tronic | There is no real reason why a high clock on silicon would make it break fast, either. These things last decades of use and high temperatures may make that slightly lower but still one really doesn't need to worry about breaking CPUs. It just doesn't normally happen. | 03:30 |
javispedro | it is not about high temperatures | 03:30 |
SpeedEvil | Tronic: Electromigra... | 03:31 |
SpeedEvil | that | 03:31 |
Tronic | javispedro: Oh, you are speaking of flash memory. That's a completely different animal. | 03:31 |
javispedro | no, I am not talking about the memory cells | 03:32 |
*** stlpaul has joined #harmattan | 03:32 | |
itsnotabigtruck | isn't electromigration due to overvolting, not overclocking? | 03:33 |
itsnotabigtruck | or is the former necessary to get the desired n900 speds | 03:33 |
Tronic | Anyway, I used my first N900 at 1150 MHz with no issues for about six months until the USB connector broke. The replacement device I got would sometimes reboot at 1150 MHz, so I ended up using 1050 MHz, which works fine (but the USB connector is already broken on that device as well). | 03:34 |
itsnotabigtruck | erm, speeds. seems like my writing is inversely proportional to my tiredness :p | 03:34 |
Tronic | itsnotabigtruck: I can't quite recall if any overvolting was done, as the voltages were based on profiles created by developers and not set directly by the user. | 03:36 |
Tronic | There was heavy undervolting on lower clock frequencies, though, and that made the battery life a little bit longer. | 03:36 |
itsnotabigtruck | hm | 03:37 |
itsnotabigtruck | not sure about how awesome overclocking the n9 would be, though desktop overclocking is the stuff | 03:38 |
Tronic | It depends on how much headroom the CPU has. | 03:38 |
itsnotabigtruck | expensive though, the cooling gear to manage the heat dissipation costs a pretty penny | 03:39 |
javispedro | itsnotabigtruck: no, it also depends on the frequency | 03:39 |
javispedro | and many other parameters | 03:39 |
*** stlpaul has left #harmattan | 03:39 | |
Tronic | Since the stock frequency is relatively low, there probably is quite a bit room for extra. Another limiting factor is what frequencies you actually can use as the upper limit on that might be lower than what the chip could take. | 03:40 |
Tronic | The CPU is the biggest bottle neck on N9, so I expect great benefits of that in any case. | 03:40 |
itsnotabigtruck | Tronic: but the stock frequency on N9 is not low | 03:40 |
javispedro | the stock frequency on the N9 is the one the SoC is rated for | 03:40 |
Tronic | On N900 the low amount of RAM (only 256 MB) was the limiting factor, causing jerkiness on desktop. | 03:40 |
javispedro | on the N900 they considered the "headroom" was enough to set the max freq to 600 | 03:41 |
itsnotabigtruck | javispedro: ehhhh, the soc is rated for a band of speeds...there's another phone (droid 2 global) with the same chip running at 1.2ghz | 03:41 |
javispedro | but this stuff and the "headroom" is all documented in the manual | 03:41 |
itsnotabigtruck | i suppose they could be binned | 03:41 |
javispedro | itsnotabigtruck: no, it's not the same chip. | 03:41 |
javispedro | (well, tbh, not that I've pried open the n950 to check) | 03:41 |
*** beford has joined #harmattan | 03:42 | |
itsnotabigtruck | the wiki table disagrees, at least assuming you're talking about the model number | 03:42 |
itsnotabigtruck | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OMAP#OMAP_3 | 03:42 |
javispedro | there are several variations of the 3630 | 03:42 |
itsnotabigtruck | i guess that isn't 100% reliable | 03:42 |
itsnotabigtruck | ah, hmm | 03:42 |
javispedro | 3630-800, 3630-1000, ... | 03:42 |
itsnotabigtruck | i thought the clock speeds were mostly based on what the vendor wanted to set it to for a) differentiation, b) heat | 03:42 |
javispedro | in fact, I remember reading that at least once in wikipedia itself... dunno who changed the page | 03:42 |
SpeedEvil | The n900 chip has directly compatible variants that go to 700. | 03:42 |
javispedro | (e.g. the one used in the pandora iirc) | 03:43 |
itsnotabigtruck | oh, in fact, it says that right there javispedro | 03:43 |
SpeedEvil | Also - remember that die shrinks happen - what was true at the time of production is not always true now. | 03:43 |
itsnotabigtruck | it says 3630-1000...Nokia N9...3630-1200...Motorola Droid 2 Global | 03:43 |
Tronic | There also tends to be plenty of headroom to ensure that *all* devices run stable. By careful testing, one can find the limits of a particular unit and for most phones that will be much higher than the highest stock frequency. | 03:43 |
itsnotabigtruck | SpeedEvil: all 3630's are 45nm i think | 03:44 |
itsnotabigtruck | it's not normal to do a die shrink without changing the part number | 03:44 |
itsnotabigtruck | the old omap3s are 65nm according to the same wiki table | 03:44 |
javispedro | but there have been a few revisions of the silicon | 03:44 |
javispedro | the n900s for example have been shipped with a few different ones | 03:44 |
itsnotabigtruck | ah yeah, i guess the stepping could affect overclockability | 03:45 |
Tronic | Also on mobile phones the CPU speed is not such an important factor. E.g. desktop GPUs tend to be clocked as high as possible, with very little headroom (and little room for overclocking) because there the performance is everything and the power usage doesn't really matter. | 03:45 |
javispedro | (and yeah, design also affects lifetime, albeit it's low probable unless there was some kind of big "misestimation") | 03:45 |
itsnotabigtruck | Tronic: well...a lot of recent cpus have a LOT of headroom, if you can find a way to deal with the heat | 03:45 |
itsnotabigtruck | e.g. nehalems that can all easily go to the vicinity of 4 ghz | 03:45 |
javispedro | intel has usually been putting a lot of "headroom" traditionally | 03:46 |
javispedro | ie no one wants to hear of a cpu that has to be clocked slower for it to work after 3 years | 03:46 |
itsnotabigtruck | heh yeah | 03:46 |
luke-jr | itsnotabigtruck: overclocking always does damage, with or without heat issues | 03:47 |
luke-jr | itsnotabigtruck: the default isn't 600 MHz, it's *up to* 600 MHz. | 03:47 |
itsnotabigtruck | and at 4ghz it probably isn't exactly completely operating in spec...i've had some rather peculiar issues that are probably due to the clocks | 03:47 |
Tronic | On mobiles the frequencies are left lower in part to save power, in part to be absolutely sure that there won't be RMAs caused by instability, and in part because people don't choose the phone that happens to have 100 MHz faster CPU over the other that has cool case design. | 03:47 |
itsnotabigtruck | even after stress testing it to the max | 03:47 |
javispedro | Tronic: and because no one cares if it breaks after 1 year, or so it seams =) | 03:48 |
javispedro | *seems | 03:48 |
itsnotabigtruck | luke-jr: well, no one pays for an expensive high performance soc to run it at 100mhz | 03:48 |
luke-jr | itsnotabigtruck: it's not even running most of the time | 03:48 |
Tronic | javispedro: Also on desktop it is extremely rare to find broken CPUs if not for extreme overclocking (liquid nitrogen cooling, heavy overvolting, ...) | 03:49 |
SpeedEvil | Tronic: Designs and constraints differ. I point to the thunderbolt electromigration issue. | 03:49 |
Tronic | javispedro: I am still running a Celeron 333 MHz overclocked to 416 MHz for all of its lifetime, with a broken CPU cooler most of that time. It has lasted far more than a decade and I couldn't care less if it died (I already have a spare server to replace the one in use). | 03:50 |
SpeedEvil | http://newsroom.intel.com/community/intel_newsroom/blog/2011/01/31/intel-identifies-chipset-design-error-implementing-solution | 03:50 |
javispedro | Tronic: I do have a few examples of chips that now need a slower clock (not CPUs), but precisely to exemplify this =) | 03:51 |
Tronic | itsnotabigtruck: I've been wondering why Intel does that. It probably has something to do with the power usage, and also that the Core architecture is very powerful to start with and very few people actually need the extra speed (e.g. for gamers the GPU is the limiting factor). | 03:55 |
*** javispedro has quit IRC | 03:56 | |
Tronic | itsnotabigtruck: And of course you can always pay $999 for the fastest chip which probably comes from that very same production line but that is simply by default overclocked much higher than the cheap chip you actually bought (still with enough headroom of course). | 03:56 |
*** bef0rd has joined #harmattan | 04:06 | |
bef0rd | hi | 04:10 |
itsnotabigtruck | Tronic: it's the power, that and also quite stringent specs | 04:10 |
itsnotabigtruck | the spec speeds are designed for the worst case scenario, and overclocking is the art of getting better-than-worst-case performance out of better-than-worst-case scenarios :p | 04:11 |
itsnotabigtruck | and yeah, the product line differentiation too, though in this case you can overclock a low-end intel chip well beyond the highest "extreme edition" clock speed | 04:12 |
itsnotabigtruck | hey bef0rd | 04:12 |

Sazpaimon_ | as in, if you look at its settings in the settings UI, it says to register | 04:47 |
Sazpaimon_ | and it doesnt update on the home screen feed until you re-launch the program | 04:47 |
itsnotabigtruck | hm | 04:52 |
itsnotabigtruck | btw i believe easy debian/harmchom can be made to work under inception by making it aegis-aware | 04:52 |
itsnotabigtruck | all that needs to be done is to assert the necessary caps for establishing the chroot, and then to assert all caps when running something as root | 04:53 |
itsnotabigtruck | so significant changes required but it's possible | 04:53 |
itsnotabigtruck | all caps, as in all linux capabilities (cap::*) | 04:53 |

Sazpaimon_ | I like how people are still talking about the nokia 808 | 05:06 |
Sazpaimon_ | I have a few photographer friends who wont stop talking about it | 05:07 |
Sazpaimon_ | and they thought my E71 and N900 was dumb | 05:07 |
itsnotabigtruck | lol | 05:08 |
itsnotabigtruck | yeah, and all the blogs keep posting fluff 808 stories instead of talking about inception :p | 05:08 |
itsnotabigtruck | also tomorrow is going to be all ipad | 05:08 |
Sazpaimon_ | sorry but the 808 is kind of a big deal | 05:09 |
Sazpaimon_ | in terms of technology | 05:09 |
Sazpaimon_ | it might actually be the phone that brings me back to symbian | 05:09 |
Tronic | Sazpaimon_: No it won't. It's more like Tesla Roadster, a cool concept that no-one will use. | 05:10 |
Sazpaimon_ | Tronic, I disagree, I follow a lot of photography forums and it's a pretty popular subject there. I think a lot of photographers will pick one up | 05:11 |
Sazpaimon_ | plus, color me crazy, but I like how the phone looks | 05:12 |
Sazpaimon_ | and nokia really did a great job with belle, I have to admit | 05:12 |
Tronic | The markets have responded to it, too. Nokia stock has fallen 10 % after the 808 announcement. | 05:13 |
*** oberling has joined #harmattan | 05:14 | |
SpeedEvil | :/ | 05:14 |
Tronic | I am quite sure that the photographers will also stick with their DSLRs or even digital compact, which still produce vastly superior quality to that megapixel monster of Nokia. | 05:14 |
SpeedEvil | It depends. | 05:15 |
*** thek has joined #harmattan | 05:15 | |
SpeedEvil | It is almost equivalent in performance to a mediochre point-and-shoot. | 05:15 |
Sazpaimon_ | their stock actually jumped about 10% after the announcement, before leveling off again | 05:15 |
Sazpaimon_ | as does usually happen with announcements like this | 05:16 |
SpeedEvil | That may be enough for some to be 'good enough' | 05:16 |
Sazpaimon_ | early announcements of phones that wont even come out this quarter aren't designed to raise stock prices immediately | 05:17 |
Sazpaimon_ | we'll see in Q2 once this thing goes on sale and reviews pop up | 05:17 |
Sazpaimon_ | and once people do side-by-side comparisons againsst DSLR cameras, like what happened with the N8 | 05:19 |
Tronic | Sazpaimon_: The stock rose a few % after the Q4 sales figures from Gartner came out. There was also a minor spike right before the Feb 27 annoucement but I didn't even consider that for calculating the 10 % drop. | 05:20 |
* Sazpaimon_ shrugs | 05:21 | |
Sazpaimon_ | as I said, I never condiered MWC as a place to try and boost stock prices drastically | 05:21 |
Sazpaimon_ | A lot of investors are still on the fence about nokia as a whole | 05:21 |
Tronic | Counting from the very highest peak on Feb 26 to the current price we have 15 % drop. | 05:22 |
Sazpaimon_ | so I dont expect a single standout device to do much with regard to overall stock price | 05:22 |
Tronic | Sorry, Feb 24, there was a weekend in between. | 05:22 |
itsnotabigtruck | that's the thing, the 808 is neither an excellent camera nor an excellent smartphone | 05:22 |
Tronic | Nor a good phone. | 05:22 |
Tronic | (well, actually it is a decent phone but not a good smartphone) | 05:23 |
itsnotabigtruck | it is a pretty cool product, no doubt, but it's not exactly game changing | 05:23 |
Sazpaimon_ | I dont see where you get off saying that it isn't an excellent camera | 05:23 |
Sazpaimon_ | no, it can't compete with the higest of the high ennd thousand dollar cameras | 05:23 |
Tronic | Sazpaimon_: It is an excellent phone camera but that doesn't make it an excellent camera in comparison with digital compact. | 05:23 |
Sazpaimon_ | but tech like this can completely obliterate the P&S market | 05:24 |
itsnotabigtruck | Sazpaimon_: no nokia cameraphone will ever compete with even the low end SLRs from canon and nikon | 05:24 |
itsnotabigtruck | those don't cost thousands, more like starting at $500 for current-gen stuff | 05:24 |
SpeedEvil | Also - low end SLR != POS | 05:25 |
SpeedEvil | P&S | 05:25 |
Tronic | itsnotabigtruck: Digital compact is the more proper comparison. Also, you get *much* more bang/buck with those. | 05:25 |
itsnotabigtruck | i mean, i don't expect a cameraphone to, either | 05:25 |
itsnotabigtruck | SLRs are bulky, for one | 05:25 |
Tronic | How much does the 808 cost, anyway? | 05:25 |
Sazpaimon_ | 200 or so euro | 05:25 |
itsnotabigtruck | but cameraphones are cameraphones, and real cameras are something else entirely | 05:25 |
Sazpaimon_ | I dont think the 808 is meant to compete with the DSLR market though | 05:26 |
*** xnt14 has quit IRC | 05:26 | |
Sazpaimon_ | more the P&S market | 05:26 |
Tronic | I would think that a 100 € digital compact easily beats the 808 but I haven't checked the low end digital camera market lately. | 05:26 |
itsnotabigtruck | yeah, that was a bad comparison on my part | 05:26 |
SpeedEvil | It's not even the P&S market. It's the people who would like a P&S and a phone, but don't want to carry both | 05:27 |
SpeedEvil | And the phone may be good enough. | 05:27 |
Sazpaimon_ | so why buy a P&S camera then when you can have a phone that does it | 05:27 |
Sazpaimon_ | thus, the P&S market gets hurt | 05:27 |
itsnotabigtruck | https://twitter.com/#!/mygoditsraining/status/177152848985985025 | 05:27 |

*** Saviq_ has joined #harmattan | 10:27 | |
ieatlint | press install, see what happens | 10:27 |
ieatlint | i bet you'll get an error telling you upgrade, or unknown issue, or similar | 10:27 |
Jeffrey04 | auenf: depends on newer libcontentaction0, libpango1.0-0, libqt4-network, libqt4-opengl, libqtcore4, libqtgui4 | 10:28 |
ieatlint | sounds like mozilla is running a pr1.3 beta and compiled against it | 10:29 |
Jeffrey04 | ieatlint, no idea | 10:29 |
ieatlint | i somehow bet there is binary compatibility with all those though, so if you can ignore deps, i suspect it'll work | 10:29 |

ieatlint | in fact, harmattan got permission from adobe to make a firefox build with flash in it for the n9 | 10:32 |

divan0 | hi all. is there an alternative QML syntax file for vim, with proper indent handling for QML? | 10:34 |
ieatlint | i know mozilla is making firefox builds, in fact they're in the ovi store (without flash right now) | 10:34 |
Jeffrey04 | ieatlint: http://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?p=39768&postcount=195 | 10:34 |

Corsac | itsnotabigtruck: afaiui you trick aegis by working in a chroot and having your inpayload.sh run when xdg-user-dir is initialized, but what exactly does the devmodeapplet.pl call do? just trigger a root-owned UI so xdg-user-dir can be called? | 13:03 |

itsnotabigtruck | (apparently inception magically stops 'the lag', somehow :p) | 18:40 |
*** andro_ has joined #harmattan | 18:43 | |
pa | what lag? | 18:46 |
*** leinir has quit IRC | 18:47 | |
itsnotabigtruck | pa: haven't had it on my end either | 18:47 |
*** sahibkhadaffi has joined #harmattan | 18:47 | |
itsnotabigtruck | some people say their N9s are laggy after upgrading to 1.2 | 18:47 |
itsnotabigtruck | but inception couldn't possibly affect that... | 18:47 |
pa | it seemed a tiny bit less smooth than 1.1, but hard to perceive | 18:48 |
*** leinir has joined #harmattan | 18:48 | |
itsnotabigtruck | inception downloads are up to about 400 now, it looks like the engadget coverage didn't cause anything to skyrocket :p they did write a good description of it though | 18:49 |
pa | well they wrote something like "you cant upgrade if you do this" | 18:50 |
pa | which might have stopped people | 18:50 |
pa | and also, most of people (including me) would do only if needed | 18:50 |
*** M4rtinK has quit IRC | 18:50 | |
pa | atm i dont need it, so i prefer not to aegisbreak | 18:50 |
RST38h | itsnotabigtruck: 1.2 seems to have introduced some package manager daemon or something | 18:50 |
RST38h | Keeps apt locked | 18:51 |
itsnotabigtruck | right, and the "can't upgrade" part is merely - the next version might have some weird countermeasure and you should wait and see | 18:51 |
Tronic | itsnotabigtruck: http://apina.biz/58575.jpg | 18:51 |

itsnotabigtruck | Tronic: :O awesome | 18:52 |
itsnotabigtruck | there's a 'crater lake' in the phillippines? hm | 18:53 |

npm | congrats on the nice hax | 18:55 |
itsnotabigtruck | heh | 18:57 |
pa | it would be cool to enable usb host too, then i'll do it :) | 18:57 |
itsnotabigtruck | looks like phonearena posted something http://www.phonearena.com/news/Nokia-N9-rooted-courtesy-of-Inception-exploit_id27761 | 18:58 |
itsnotabigtruck | close to everything else i'm finding is some seo-spam website that lifts articles from gsmarena or engadget | 18:58 |
pa | btw isnt it funny that my N9 passed from 16% to 4% of battery? just like this.. | 18:59 |
itsnotabigtruck | welcome to the n9's funky battery percentage indicator :p | 18:59 |
itsnotabigtruck | i hear the n900 was like that too | 18:59 |
pa | but isnt it possible to do something like cat /proc/acpi/battery/blabla, that should report the remaining mah? | 19:00 |
*** NIN101 has joined #harmattan | 19:00 | |
pa | or .. maybe there's no acpi | 19:00 |
itsnotabigtruck | pa: possibly...most of the battery stuff is in a usermode component given the oh-so-exciting name of 'battery management entity' | 19:01 |
itsnotabigtruck | i think you can access the info via dbus | 19:01 |
hiemanshu | itsnotabigtruck: care to give a TL;DR version of what Inception does | 19:04 |
tehdely | it exploits a privilege escalation vulnerability in aegis to install a new trusted origin for packages that blesses them with full privileges, and the tool necessary to sign and install those packages | 19:05 |
tehdely | that's my executive summary just from reading the code :P | 19:05 |
Corsac | itsnotabigtruck: btw I wanted to ask about the devmode.pl script called in the chroot | 19:05 |
sahibkhadaffi | I was curious about that perl script as well... | 19:06 |
hiemanshu | tehdely: ah ok | 19:06 |
Corsac | it looks like a nice trick to run some graphical stuff as root inside a chroot a trigger the execution of the inpayload.sh | 19:07 |

*** lizardo has quit IRC | 19:14 | |
*** lizardo has joined #harmattan | 19:16 | |
tehdely | nope | 19:17 |
tehdely | the only reason he uses devmode.pl is that it has the right privileges, and runs perl | 19:17 |
tehdely | no actual code from within devmode.pl ever gets executed :) | 19:17 |
javispedro | it's just another of the many glaring aegis holes | 19:17 |
tehdely | let's just say: this is the reason most UNIXes don't respect a suid bit on scripts | 19:18 |
tehdely | that's the equivalent of what aegis is doing here | 19:18 |
tehdely | and he exploits it | 19:18 |
javispedro | tehdely, well I have to say the way they fixed the pr1.1 one wasn't exactly unixy =) | 19:18 |
tehdely | i wasn't around for that | 19:18 |
qronic | pa, you could run bmestat, it shows remaining mAh | 19:19 |
sahibkhadaffi | tehdely: okay, seems like a pretty big miss from Nokia. Then again, aegis as a whole seems rather leaky | 19:21 |
tehdely | it is what it is. they'll fix it | 19:21 |
javispedro | but they will fix it | 19:21 |
tehdely | this is how systems become secured | 19:21 |
tehdely | you always overlook something | 19:21 |
qronic | tehdely, did you find out when exactly inpayload.sh is executed? | 19:21 |
tehdely | yes | 19:21 |
qronic | what exactly runs it? | 19:22 |
qronic | I only see the link from it to "$NEWROOT/root/.config/user-dirs.dirs" | 19:22 |
tehdely | these two lines are the key | 19:22 |
tehdely | /bin/ln '/usr/bin/xdg-user-dir' "$NEWROOT/usr/bin/perl" | 19:22 |
tehdely | /bin/ln '/usr/lib/inception/inpayload.sh' "$NEWROOT/root/.config/user-dirs.dirs" | 19:22 |
pa | ah thanks | 19:23 |
*** lmoura has quit IRC | 19:23 | |
javispedro | in any case, pr1.1's bug could be triggered with a rename; this one seems overcomplex. | 19:23 |
qronic | ahh | 19:23 |
tehdely | what happens is he runs /usr/lib/developer-mode/bin/devmodeapplet.pl | 19:23 |
qronic | tehdely, got it | 19:23 |
tehdely | whose first line is #!/usr/bin/perl | 19:23 |
*** lmoura has joined #harmattan | 19:23 | |
tehdely | except in his chroot, /usr/bin/perl is actually the script in /usr/bin/xdg-user-dir | 19:23 |
tehdely | which has this line: | 19:23 |
tehdely | test -f ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/user-dirs.dirs && . ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/user-dirs.dirs | 19:23 |
qronic | so this runs with tcb token then? | 19:24 |
tehdely | it's sourcing user-dirs.dirs | 19:24 |
tehdely | so he replaces user-dirs.dirs with his payload | 19:24 |
tehdely | and it gets sourced, as a shell script, by another shell script, which is in turn being run by devmode-applet.pl, which has tcb token | 19:24 |
pa | qronic, even tho the results appear to be weird.. it says current capacity 57 and current "89" O_o | 19:24 |
pa | i think there are some problems with it.. :) | 19:25 |
pa | (software, not phone) | 19:25 |
*** faenil has joined #harmattan | 19:26 | |
qronic | javispedro, could you describe the PR1.1's bug with rename that was fixed? Seems like now it's no secret | 19:26 |
qronic | for nokia | 19:26 |
javispedro | it is not fixed, it's just made harder | 19:27 |
tehdely | the bug in pr1.2 is that aegis isn't verifying interpreters for scripts | 19:27 |
tehdely | because, in the chroot, /usr/bin/perl is actually a shell script, and it happily executes it in its stead | 19:27 |
tehdely | i'm not sure how you'd solve that | 19:28 |
tehdely | the way most UNIXes solve it is by not trusting anything that uses an interpreter | 19:28 |
javispedro | aegis is veryfing interpreters | 19:28 |
tehdely | but that's not going to work ehre | 19:28 |
javispedro | this is a classical bug that was raised many times in the apparmor vs selinux discussions | 19:28 |
tehdely | maybe you'll have to specify an inode in your shebang | 19:28 |
tehdely | #!/usr/bin/perl[27343] | 19:28 |
javispedro | aka inode vs pathname | 19:28 |
javispedro | the way it was fixed in pr1.1, one could say that it brought the worst parts of both worlds | 19:28 |
tehdely | maybe you need a refchecklist of interpreters | 19:29 |

sahibkhadaffi | they use different themes in the backend, and the implementation differs IIRC | 23:01 |
sahibkhadaffi | qt - code once, #ifdef everywhere ;) | 23:01 |
danielcbit | can't even pass full uri ? Like images://themes/XXXXX | 23:02 |
sahibkhadaffi | better try - I know I looked in to it a while back for a project, but decided to just target harmattan instead as it'd involve too much hassle to make the crossover to symbian smooth... things might've changed since though | 23:03 |
*** lizardo has quit IRC | 23:04 | |
sahibkhadaffi | are you using the toolbar element from QtQuick? | 23:04 |
danielcbit | sahibkhadaffi: I was trying to do this way but I didn't manage to find correct uri for meego. | 23:04 |
danielcbit | sahibkhadaffi: Yes | 23:05 |
*** faenil has quit IRC | 23:08 | |
sahibkhadaffi | danielcbit: well, harmattan apps defaults to meego-touch, while a different solution is in use on symbian. There is probably somebody else here who successfully made a viable solution | 23:11 |
danielcbit | sahibkhadaffi: OK, Thanks. I'll figure something out. | 23:13 |
