Free ps3 software for linux

ps3 is a utility for monitoring process activity on a Linux machine. It is a little bit like top, except that:
- it displays all processes
- it updates itself up to 100 times per second instead of once every three seconds
- it shows a 3D chart, with interactive rotation, zooming and scaling
Installation:
Just type make.

With Sonys recent introduction of the PS3, you can now run Linux on it as well as use it as a gaming console. The PlayStation3 is based on a Cell processor and therefore can run most of the ppc64 64ul or 32ul binaries without change. As of now, the kernel does differ.

This project page is commited to Linux running on the PS3. Here you will find all kinds of information related to Gentoo for the PS3, Cell processors, toolchains, and the Gentoo LiveCD for PS3 and PowerMacs.

The latest Livecd is very close to working. Join us on IRC for the latest. To wet your appetite, check out nickthecooks screenshot of the livecd working. Notice the full gnome desktop. You can also see a hi-res screen shot of the gnome-desktop here.
With the right equipment and a little hack (soon), the PS3 should boot into high resolution and include among other things:

- Full gnome desktop 2.16.x
- Sound support with audacious and rythmbox
- Firefox 2 and thunderbird, evolution, epihany, seamonkey

SystemImager is software that automates Linux installs, software distribution, and production deployment.
SystemImager makes it easy to do automated installs (clones), software distribution, content or data distribution, configuration changes, and operating system updates to your network of Linux machines. You can even update from one Linux release version to another!
It can also be used to ensure safe production deployments. By saving your current production image before updating to your new production image, you have a highly reliable contingency mechanism. If the new production enviroment is found to be flawed, simply roll-back to the last production image with a simple update command!
Some typical environments include: Internet server farms, database server farms, high performance clusters, computer labs, and corporate desktop environments.
Whats New in 3.8.2 Stable Release:
- fixed a bug in the monitoring: REBOOTED state was not properly reported in some minimal image (without the command which)
- added "--config FILE" option to si_prepareclient and si_mkbootpackage (and removed from si_mkautoinstalldisk: the option must be used in commands that explicitly create an initrd.img from initrd_template)
- do not hard-code common patterns of exclusion in si_getimage (created the configuration file /etc/systemimager/getimage.exclude)
- si_getimage didnt stop correctly the rsync daemon in the golden client, using rsync over ssh for the image retrieval
Whats New in 3.9.2 Development Release:
- Added support for the PS3 architecture
- Improved support and compatibility with Debian (now deb packages can be automatically built from source using the new target "make deb")
- updated BOEL kernel to 2.6.21 (for i386 and x86_64)
- fixed a bug that broke si_mkautoinstalldisk
- free unused RAM of the initramfs (only with cpio initrd.img) after switching to tmpfs
- updated udev to udev_108-0ubuntu4
- support old versions of the BitTorrent client (better compatibilty with *Ubuntu)
- fixed a lib/lib64 bug with ppc64
- fixed a bug in si_monitor daemon that didnt start correctly when the directory /var/lock/systemimager was not present
- added missing manpages
- remount the filesystems in read-only before giving-up when the umount fails at the end of the installation
- create all the swap partitions before the other filesystems in the autoinstall script: this avoids potential OOM conditions that could occur during the filesystem creation
- removed unused coreutils package from initrd.img
- removed unmaintained package imagemanip
- removed deprecated command si_mkbootmedia

Yellow Dog Linux is the Premier Linux Operating System for PowerPC.
Proven world-wide as the preferred Linux OS for the Power architecture, v4.1 brings Terra Soft into its 8th year of Power Linux development and support. Yellow Dog Linux v4.1 marks a returning point in Terra Softs effort to again provide a leading desktop Linux OS.
Yellow Dog Linux combines the preferred desktops KDE and Gnome with the latest sound and graphic card support, leading (but not bleeding) edge kernels and stable, functional compilers for code development. And of course, the foundation applications and servers expected of all modern Linux operatings systems for web, database, email, and network services.
What will you do with your PowerMac after Apple switches to Intel?
We have an answer--Faster, more stable, and far more efficient as a desktop OS, Yellow Dog Linux is a solid replacement (not just an alternative) to OSX. Breath new life into your PowerPC G3 and G4, giving it a second wind as a personal workstation, or a new function as a web, email, or data server. Want to see how your G5 runs Linux? You may dual-boot both OSX and Yellow Dog Linux or take the leap and run Yellow Dog Linux alone, taking advantage of the multitude of included, freely available, and commercial applications.

Enhancements:
- We are pleased to announce the release of Yellow Dog Linux 5.0.2, a single Install DVD with support for the Apple G4 and G5 computers, Sony PS3, and IBM System p servers, including the JS20/21, OpenPower, and current POWER5 systems. Yellow Dog Linux 5.0.2 offers: kernel 2.6.22-rc4; SDK v2.0 for Cell BE; more than 70 bug fixes and updates; continued support for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems; beta IBM System p support. The IBM Software Development Toolkit (SDK) for Cell Broadband Engine (Cell BE) is a complete package of tools which allows developers to program optimized applications for platforms built upon the Cell BE. The SDK is composed of development tool chains, software libraries, and sample source.
