PSP Linux- the real crackers

[Cap'n 1time]

Ok, everyone is sick and tired of all the fakes that keep showing up. Rather than public display of crap and a group of stupid kids creating false hopes in the PSP homebrew scene, psp-linux.org has been chugging along silently looking into holes and possible exploits to create a boot loader. so check out their forums

Looks like it's getting responses that it is fake.

how can it be fake if it hasnt even come out yet? while they are trying to get linux to run on their psp's they are also learning about about it. that was my point.

I think he was referring to that supposed THUG exploit.

[Zeno]

Yeah, I was referring to basically the video.

Speaking of which, what do you make of this one ?

Looks like the most convincing effort to me so far (not to say that it's genuine), and apparently it's by the same Russian guy who released the Pong one this afternoon.

Now this I can believe, I wonder if he will release his tools so we can play homebrewn on 1.5? I really really hope this one is real!

Hmmm I don't know. The first part where the 1.5 text is shown and then to the menu looks too jumpy...

I say fake on that new vid.

why?

1.0 bios cuts off after the PSP white screen.
1.5 bios fades out after the psp white screen.

That vid cut from the wite screen to the demo. Something the 1.5 would not do.
