cheking it out :)

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

Cool, :D

thx for this, :)

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

seems the server is down

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

which server? prey or nokia?

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

not sure, when installing it tells me it has to download extra files from dependencies, I accept then tells me the server is down or there is no network connection. Im at wifi and I do have internet, anyone else with this?

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

currently 'harmattan-dev.nokia.com' is down for maintenance. some of the dependencies(python,pyside,etc) cannot be fetched until it is back online. somebody(not sure who) had taken backup of the repositories

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

harmattan dev repo hasn't been mirrored yet...

However, dcastrog, if you can give the output of whatever is required, whoever has those .debs in their system can surely post it...

I have prey up and running so I can post them too but I need the exact names of what is missing as my system is usually screwed with a lot of packages :D

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

is there any way to know which repos are missing?

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

No no not repo missing...

Why don't you post the full output of the installation log while installing from terminal? It'll mention the dependencies required in the output...

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

Ok thanks to brkn's method above, I've got the dependencies packaged...

I don't think perl is required but I've still put it into the .zip which can be gotten from here

You can download, extract to a folder then install the files first before installing meeprey...For example you extract to ~/MyDocs/Prey_dep/ then you open terminal and do as root:

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

After that, in my case, because there were others dependencies of the python-qtmobility, was also necessary to do, always as root:

to install them, and then install "again" python-qtmobility deb package, because before, without dependencies installed, it wasn't installed correctly (it wasn't installed at all).

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

hi guys
when i install with : apkg -i /home/user/MyDocs? meeprey_0.0.1_armmel.deb
in the home screen there are a new icon : prey_config but when i open it need a password i put the root password ( rootme ) but it close so how to remoove this ? please help

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

It means you entered the password wrongly...Check it that it's correct first...

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

im running this code, but aegis is rejecting the instalation

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

time for inception I guess? :)

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

forget inception, after running

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/Prey_dep/curl...*deb

evertything worked :) will try it out :)

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

wow it's awesome, just tried it and the alarm went off (muted by the pink music volume bar) and then saw the report at the site with my mugshot and location! :D this is great, I like it more than tnp

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

the lock action is not working, the bounty action works only once

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

did u get it working?
if not, can you run the following command as root and paste the output here?
/opt/prey/platform/linux/config

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

good to know that Prey works for you

lock action has not been implemented yet. I set my lock password some time back and forgot it :(. afraid to test that feature and risk getting locked out of my device. besides, any insight into how the default lock system works in harmattan, would be helpful to get it working in Prey.

what is 'bounty' action?

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

After i run this, i get the following:


/home/user/MyDocs/Downloads # dpkg-deb -I meepr
ey_0.0.3_armel.deb | grep Depends
Depends: curl, bash, python-pyside, applauncherd-launcher, libc6 (>= 2.4), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), libqt4-declarative (>= 4.7.4~git20110517),libqt4-network (>= 4.7.4~git20110517), libqt4-opengl (>= 4.7.4~git20110517), libqtcore4 (>= 4.7.4~git20110517), libqtgui4 (>= 4.7.4~git20110517), libqtm-multimedia (>= 1.2.1+193+0m6), libqtm-systeminfo (>= 1.2.1+193+0m6), libstdc++6 (>= 4.4.0)

And to me also fails to install. What am i doing wrong?

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

gsalone,

Those instructions were for me to get the dependencies sorted...Read the first post then two posts after brkn's and you'll get the picture...

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

I did so but I get following:


~ # dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/P/*.deb
Aegis rejecting /home/user/MyDocs/P/*.deb: Could not open debian archive
aegis aborting dpkg -- all listed package files rejected
Compilation failed in require.

Wth???

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

check inside ~/MyDocs/P/ if you have .deb files inside or another folder...

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

All is good :D

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

said bounty, I mean the message telling there is reward only works once, then it doesnt appear

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

It works for me multiple times too...

Are you sure you tested it right? Try it again maybe...

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

it should work multiple times. did you by chance disable it on the control panel?
if not, can you post the content of /var/log/prey2.log

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

Nice, work! Thanks!

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

wich settings should i set? laptop-debian-sqweez? or doesnt matter?.
otherwise the video of the webcamworks? because reports only sends me on map where my device and i cant see screenshots or something

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

the device type/OS does not matter, it is for our convenience/reference only.
front cam photo should work, you should enable it from the control panel. If you have ur device lying face down or inside some cover, it will give black photo.
front cam video is not currently supported(issues in recording video in 'mov' format)

if you have enabled screenshot in 'session' module it wont work (you will get black image). i have not bothered fixing it, as i felt it is irrelevant for a mobile device

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

Hi,

i tried to install Prey on my N9, but i've few issues.

Prey on laptop shows me only a map with phone position, and an IP adress.

Secondly, i don't find a place to download Imagemagick deb file ?!

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

Just type apt-get install imagemagick in terminal as root and watch the magic :p

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

what about an n900 version?

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

Thanks thedead1440 ;) sometimes it's too easy... !

Now i have the screenshot on Prey, but i don't have the front camera pic :confused: Is there something to activate ?!

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

You have a screenshot? There is only a front-cam pic as mentioned in the first post; maybe you have mixed it up :D

Re: [Announce] Prey (anti-theft) for N9/N950
 

Here is the screenshot of prey rapport :

I don't have the front cam pic :confused:
