    Does everything work?
    What kind of performance are you getting?
    How good is it with resources,heavy on memory,uses lots of cpu?

    Re: Ubuntu / Debian installed on the PlayStation 3 (PS3)

    thats one of the main reasons i would like other people to install ubuntu on the ps3.

    i installed it @ like 5am on monday morning and work starts at 9:30am. i have not had much time to really dig deep as i'm at work for 10-12 hours a day. this means my updates wouldnt be until the weekend when i have time, but i know a lot of other people have different schedules so its a call for help!

    i installed xubuntu 6.10 on the ps3 as i'm mainly a CLI guy, but it would be nice to have others help out on the ps3 as i dont have much time during the week to really tinker with my new toy.

    If you can post a HOWTO would be great. MANY people are trying and are not able to do what you have accomplished.
