| From my experience you will have to do a lot of work to get any of the PS3 compatible distros working well on the PS3. I never spent enough time with Yellowdog or Fedora to get them running with all the features. Gentoo seems to be the most up to date and compatible. I got ubuntu running very well on my PS3 also but I had to compile half the system myself. I eventually switched to gentoo since compiling everything is handled by the package manager. |

| I don't think he is wanting to run PS3 Linux. Rather, he's running Linux on a separate box and streaming content to the PS3.
To the OP: Any distro would be fine. I'd recommend something with relatively new package availability, since these multimedia type applications tend to change frequently.

Middletown, DE | I know that "Geexbox" is the distro that spawned the ushare project, but personally I would just stick to a mainstream distro and do a minimal install of what you need.
