Reply With QuoteUbuntu, loads of app support (more than any linux distro), with the custom kernel installed you can get WiFi support, bluetooth controller support and other stuff.

What is the best OS to install on a ps3?
I am not quite sure what is the best linux OS to install on my ps3. I have had it for only 5 days now and I'm pretty sure I want to have some sort of linux on it. My question for you is, what is the best OS for my ps3 overall? and also what kind of things can you do that make it the best?
Thanks a ton.

You can't run XP on a ps3... it's powerPC based.
Yellow Dog Linux is the officially supported one by sony, however, it's rubbish in my experience; it's just a pain to use, for example you have to manually mount CDs and Flash memory. I currently use Ubuntu, and it#s way better apart from the shaky wifi support which is an absolute pain to get working, but if you're experienced with Linux you should be okay.

No you cannot. There is no PPC windows. Originally Posted by JKKDARK

Ubuntu is good, but again agree'd WiFi is a pain in the ass, but you can get it working in about 30mins.PSN (PS3/PS4/Vita)/NintendoID - Triv1umx
