If anyone on Windows would like to see what performance is like, I updated my WSL installer scripts to use this version of XRDP. Ubuntu XFCE: https://github.com/DesktopECHO/xWSL KDE Neon: https://github.co

I don't see anything with regards to inclusion of the Clear Codec (RDP8.1 + H.264) in Fedora builds. If there is evidence indicating this is actually the case, please let me know.

That's client side. FreeRDP needs H.264 libraries to work with this branch of XRDP. Apparently, Ubuntu and variants do not include this in their FreeRDP builds, good to know it's in Debian though. (MSTSC.EXE and the official mac

I believe your writeup is about enabling Glamor; it does not do anything to enable the H.264 "Clear Codec" branch of XRDP. Apologies in advance if I'm wrong here, please correct me if I'm mistaken :)

Not this one. > Nope. While basic Linux support is slowly materializing, two major blockers are still at the same spot - HDMI audio (no useful driver) and bug in display driver (big code change may be required to fix it). https:/&#

Wow sorry to hear that. If you can, check if the device is still available over ADB. If it is, try re-running the script. Not sure what happened in your case, I flashed many ROMs and ran the script against them to see if anything bad woul

I'm with you on that. There are efforts underway to get plain-old Linux running, but it's some time away as this chip only went into mainline as of kernel 6.0

I'm not going to try and change your mind, just sayin' that seems like a really bad idea.

Thanks for this fascinating insight. The jankyness you describe lines-up exactly with what I'm seeing here. If H616 was the mainstream/volume chip box to have in 2021, then I'm super-interested to see what their 2023 H6

I'm not too surprised, as the malware goes out of its way to use ycxrl.com -- Going to extents like using 8.8.8.8 instead of the default DNS server, and trying a DNS server on port 5353. Using those techniques, nobody would get a cha

Thanks for the guidance here. Where I'm really stuck is when tcpdump tells me about the presence of the offending traffic and correlating process. In this case, it's the Android "system_server" process and I'm not

Funny you mention it, as it also had ADUPS. By itself, I can deal with that. Actually it more resembles the CopyCat malware. My challenge is finding the hook in system_server that downloads the payload from C2. * https://www.

Fair point, thanks. Added AliExpress.

Yeah only the primary server seems to be on blocklists. The malware uses 3 DNS addresses, all on Linode. Not that it matters, as the malware uses 8.8.8.8 if it doesn't like the DNS reply -- Then it tries a DNS server on port 5353!
