Hi, Shaun.
The distribution of Linux would not matter. All of the stuff kernel,
libraries, etc is typically identical. The only question would be
version matching.
I would suspect Sony would be adding some specialised tools for the
games, and and special libs that would be specific to their
True tom, however you probably would need a reader to read the screen.
Unless it was built in, you would most sertainly need a reader for
the internal configs stored on the system.

This would depend on what linux came out on the ps3.
In theory you could probably do something with that.

The big question for developers will be how much is Linux native sdks

Sony. If they make extensive use of he known libraries, etc then we

Well, I also hope the trend continues. Linux has the potential to be
used for awesome game stations, but by and large the game companies have
stayed away from it until now.

Hi, Allan.
Linux has always had a graphical Windows-like interface as well as a
command line interface. The problem was until the past couple of years
ago the Windows interface was not accessible to screen readers. Now,
there are two screen readers gnopernicus and Orca which work in the GUI.

On that subject, just for info, avg doesn't like a script with any

Just a reminder to stear the topic back to gaming. The PS3 and possible
access to games and development was fine, but Linux screen readers, and
other technologies are really out of the scope of this list.

Hi.
Interesting. I'm also wondering how much insider custom crap Sony will
be adding. I am hopeful the PS3 will be made to be accessible, but am
uncertain as many commercial products have also used Linux, but used so
much home grown programs that the unit, software, or device was
rendered
Two words. That sucks!
Here just when I thought Sony might be given in an edge to coming out
with an accessible game platform, and once again commercialism wins over
any desires we small devs might have.

Ah, the blue ray disks. I didn't know Sony was going to begin using
them, but it makes sense. Unfortunately, the only way to get them is
from Japan last I was up to speed on them.

something about having Linux on it, that people at home could potentially
develop games in some fashion for the machine. I thought this was intriguing
