I just got a shiny new PS3 60GB model. (Only $100 out of my pocket, due to selling my standalone Blu-Ray player, and getting a Best Buy gift card by winning a raffle at work. Wooot!)
Anyway, I want to venture into installing a flavor of Linux.
Has anyone loaded linux onto their PS3? If so, what distros has everyone tried. Has 3d acceleration been figured out yet?
I'm leaning towards Fedora, as that's my distro of choice on the pc, but I'm willing to take other suggestions as well. Was never a huge fan of Ubuntu, but it is still nice, so I'm also considering it. Also heard YDL runs on it nicely.
Anyway, fire off your PS3 Linux experiences, tips, tricks, and just plain ol' stories here.
EDIT: I'm starting off with Fedora. Gonna see how that runs for a while, then probably try some other distros as well. Please still chime in with your stories and suggestions, however.
