Fanjita: "You remember that the only thing holding us back from a downgrader for v3.03 was the lack of a user-mode exploit?
"Well, we don't like to be held back from anything, so we went back to basics and looked over some of the old exploits. And what do you know? We found one!
"We did a little digging into the old GTA exploit, and discovered that it hadn't been properly patched after all. We'll leave it as an exercise for the interested reader to figure out exactly how we got past the patch (and to give Sony a little while longer before the head-slapping "Doh!" moment Tongue out).
"But the short version is that we can now run code again via Grand Theft Auto : Liberty City Stories. You want some proof? Check out the Goofy Hello World""

If your monitor supports HDCP over DVI then an HDMI to DVI cable works just fine, since the video protocol is identical (or close enough).

I think on the Westinghouse monitors in question they don't support HDCP on the DVI port only the HDMI port, that's why it doesn't work as a solution.

Of course it's silly of Sony to run HDCP full time. It should only be run when the content provider explicitly asks for it.

The fact that I have no friends/fan yet is a tad depressing, but even though I've been a /. user forever (witness my uid 11434 vs rmohr02's at 208447) I haven't really played with the user features yet.
I read /. a lot but rarely comment, mostly because I'm too busy working instead of reading through the comments.
Apparently I ruffled some feathers with my "Get a rea
