| I use Fedora 9 on my PSP... you need to recompile the kernel to get speed (that and use XFCE instead of Gnome or KDE). There is a thread on the Fedora PPC/Mac forum that tells how to do that. |

| Use Xubuntu. Not as resource hungry as the regular Ubuntu release... |

Ubuntu and derivatives haven't supported the PS3 since 7.04, although a community build of 7.10 was made. All newer Ubuntus don't work on the PS3... I've tried them. There was a push by some users to get 8.10 to support the PS3 again, but I haven't checked that version out yet. |

I've tested version 8.10 of both Ubuntu and Xubuntu for the PS3, and they install with no problems. Xubuntu used noticeably fewer resources, though. |

That's good to hear... maybe I'll switch to Xubuntu. That's my favorite distro at the moment anyway. :)
I imagine the kernel still needs to be recompiled specifically for the PS3, much like with Fedora. |

Yeah, Xubuntu only has a stock 2.6.25 kernel. |
