make_self_npdrm makes valid NPDRM selfs from elfs
it does not contain any info on decrypting or removing NPDRM
NPDRM is required for interoperability of our homebrew applications
package_finalize turns your debug packages into psuedoretail packages
psuedoretail packages install on a geohot jailbroken PS3

i'm excited to see what you will create

you can't post that link here i'm afraid. gbatemp doesn't like the keys.

Whats the problem with the keys anyway? They're just a bunch of numbers. Even Team Twiizers posted the common key of the Wii on their hackmii blog...

It's just a precaution, it's not that hard to google anyways. I like gbatemp here so i don't mind them being safe.

I have to agree with what someone else posted earlier though, the way Geohot's behaving, if people go along with it, isolates the homebrew environment into something that he can control, Geohot verified homebrew for Geohot verified CFW.
I don't like that at all, homebrew is a collaborative free endeavour, not something for Geohot to moderate like this.

With many people capable of making their own CFW, what Geohot will be doing is creating a compatibility split amongst homebrewers.
What about Kakaroto's homebrew only firmware? What about another potential CFW that allows piracy? Should they not be running Geohot's signed homebrew?
That might be what he thinks, with his anti-piracy stance.

I agree with you totally, I'm just excited for something of this development! I'm all for universal homebrew, and I for one don't want a GeoHot CFW only thing either

"GeoHot signed" PKGs should install on any PS3 with CFW. They should pass all the checks of OFW, they just need the Install PKG Files option given by a CFW. GeoHot's CFW by my understanding does essentially the same thing as KaKaRoTo's, but instead of being a full update, is installed as a small "patch" -like update.

Is that so? Sounds a lot more convenient.
Still worried about Geohot's homebrew signing tools not working on all CFW, but it's already possible for someone to test that .pkg PNGviewer that Geohot published on Kakaroto's CFW.
Someone? Go do that.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
