Rutgers University writes malware for Freerunner
http://www.technewsdaily.com/hacked-smartphones-could-be-used-to-spy-on-you-100222-0237/ --8-- The researchers say their intent is not to just scare people, but to inspire action. What we’re doing today is raising a warning flag, Iftode said. We’re showing that people with general computer proficiency can create rootkit malware for smart phones. The next step is to work on defenses. The team used an open-source smartphone called the Openmoko FreeRunner running Linux software, but they emphasized that with enough time and effort, any smartphone operating system can be attacked with malware. The Rutgers team plans to use their results to inspire developers to create new ways to detect and prevent rootkit attacks on smartphones because none exist right now. --8-- -- Andrew Stephen http://www.evil.geek.nz/ It is absurd to divide people into good and bad.

[SHR-U] shr-launcher cannot set categories
I've regularly tried launcher since soon after the first release, and have never been successful adding applications to the categories. I have just tried this again, on a freshly upgraded SHR-U. I installed via opkg install shr-launcher When I go to Category - Set App Categories I get an empty list: http://scap.linuxtogo.org/files/d828b0e8a5cfa71a3792895dba6ed314.png If I click on the Category button and choose a category from the drop list, I get an immediate segmentation fault with no other error shown. If I go to Configure and tap the App Icons - Category and choose a category button I also get a segmentation fault with no other error. In both cases I get the following on stdout: restoring state db ver:37 showing window Getting SMS data.. Getting Calls data.. dbus init over. opim data pending.. Updating SMS data.. Updating Calls Data.. and this on stderr: Segmentation fault Is there anything else I should try? -- Andrew Stephen http://www.evil.geek.nz/ It is absurd to divide people into good and bad.

Midori Browser Config
I am using Midori 0.2.1-r1.4 on SHR-U. There are two usability issues which are causing me problems: 1) Location bar suggestions drop-down As I type a URL which matches anything in the history a dropdown appears and the last character I type gets erpeated no matter what other character I actually type. As I type I need to tap in the location bar in between each letter. 2) No way to exit full screen mode In a previous shr-u release there was an icon shown in fuill-screen mode which allowed me to exit full-screen. This no longer appears and I can see no way of returning to windowed mode. Has anybody else experienced these and found a fix?
