It should be:

fb = dev_fb_init(machine, mem, 0x04000000, VFB_GENERIC,480,272, 512,272, 24, "generic", 0);

please notice the last '0', instead of '1'.

I'm also unsure you want to use R6000, as this cpu was almost never used in the real world.

Rinco, I did this change and the only thing I'm getting with gxemul 0.3.3.2 is a segmentation fault, right during the initialization of the framebuffer, is there anything else I need to modify to get this going? I also tried with gxemul 0.3.2 and I get the same seg fault: (gdb) r -V -M 32 -J -T -i -...

hmm... maybe the way to go... would be to find out how to go back. Someone with a 1.0 psp has to find a way to get it all off of there... I agree, maybe one could read the eeprom with the 1.0 firmware (I have no problem opening my PSP to flash my firmware to 1.0) or find a way for us to downgrade i...

the point would be not to flash it back, but learn from it... it would be priceless.
I absolutely agree on that, there's not only a lot to learn, but honeslty, I didn't buy a psp for the games, or whatever, just in the hope that one day I would run my own apps on it.

Its possible, highly unlikely and completely unconfirmed as far as I know. Wait for someone to confirm it before throwing a party. Man, if it's true, party's on me. Alright, anybody knows what's up with that? Does firmware 1.0 checks for encryption in binaries? Where to get a firmware 1.0? And how ...

Then all of the 'latest games' would have to use up space on the umd for the required firmware, although thats easily possible considering the size of it... if you find a proper ELF (and not some dwarf in disguise ;) ) it should run if not checked properly by the the OS. Except any binaries should ...

What I mean is that they could just have told Wipeout's developers: "hey guys, this is lame, it's obvious that someone will setup a fake DNS server to redirect requests to one's httpd server." And what could they have done about that ? It's physically impossible to avoid such thing to hap...

Oh, I just remembered another attack: Sometimes the radio emissions of computers while decrypting will give clues about the key used. That one might be applicable, but if I recall correctly it works better with cpus running at higher clock rates, so it might not work so well with the PSP either, si...

This is a possibility, and pretty much what the SSH protocol does, but it's unlikely that the secret key is in the SDK, so this would mean that Sony has to encrypt each and every PSP or PSAR, it's a big job, perhaps they have grant developers access to a shell server to encrypt their own binaries? ...

what if (hypothetically) the key is random between software, and the key itself is encrypted as part of the software using a public/private key setup? it's my grossly under-educated opinion that it's pretty unlikely to have only "one layer to the onion" so to speak. if you don't understan...

But... where is the key used with AES?

AES obviously requires an encryption/decryption key, we know that this key is stored on the PSP itself, question is: Where? It's a symetrical encryption, therefore the SAME key is used for encryption and decryption, if only we could find the key, wherever it is, we could encode binaries (assuming th...

Bruteforcing a crypto algorithm should always be seen as a last resort, when no "shortcuts" were found, i.e. exploits, leak or weakness in the protection scheme or hardware hack, attacking AES-128 could certainly be accomplished by a small government with enough processing power (US, Japan...

Well, you can just forget about the Codewarrior thing, in any case building a cross-compiler is easy and would produce the same results as using the Codewarrior's xgcc, since no extra libs are provided in this package. Unfortunately, we do not have any way to run signed binaries, unless they are cal...

What about using some buffer overflow or any other exploit? Maybe one game doesn't check the format of its save properly, or the mp3/movie player is flawed? I believe that there's a way to load linux using a similar method on the xbox, of course it's no easy job to find such hole.

The API is more like an opearting system, if not actually an opearting system. Try running a game and hitting the Home key. Also connecting over WiFi will show OS screens.

First, don't talk about the SDK here, it's not legit. Talking about the SDK is not illegal, sharing it or using it without a proper license is.

As for the cross-compiler being able to make programs, yes this is true, however Sony has a specific API that you need to hook into to make programs (yes, even pro developers have to use this API) and without that we won't know how to make anything run.
