We still miss the RSX drivers for most distro's... only FreeBSD has a kind of RSX driver but FreeBSD is no standard Linux....

Cool No need Linux for playing PC games on PS3

Im 100% feel sure trying to install and run a psx or dolphin emu or playing pc games on a Linux PowerPC Edition right now is a waste of time unless we have a nice RSX or GPU driver and good Kernel file working harmonicaly just like a well matched couple..!

Moreover, most of the people have got their own desktop pc's or notebooks or a similar thing which have much more capability to run Linux in a more efficient way than our PS3...

Result; running linux on PS3 is useless but a feeling of interest maybe curiosity drives us to make it happen just like me..
