I literally have absolutely no idea what I have done, BUT, snd_ps3.... is now found by PS3 running Yellow Dog Linux. At some time in the past two weeks while I was running around, I did an update (after Terra finally got my password fixed) and the sound system is found. I compiled and installed PortAudio and pa_devs finds the device and all of the test programs that are using only output work perfectly.

When you run "top" on this machine, you will see two threads. Do NOT do make -j3 or -j2. Swig output has been compiling for AN HOUR and has not finished. ;-).


For those running YDL, I am sure you have discovered that you have about 8k of free space in RAM when running Enlightenment. Gnome is even worse (2k).

In /etc/inittab  where you find

id:5:initdefault


change the 5 to a 3 and reboot to get rid of the X login. If you need X things, ssh in from a remote terminal.

Now you will find that about 50% of RAM is free when the machine is sitting idle. The drop in swapping has a major impact on the PS3.

I am hoping (like Tom) to report some success with the PS3 on Sunday. I have a full plate with Frank Brickle and Flex until Sunday afternoon.
