Re: Download Torrents with PS3, Posted 06-07-2008 at 04:58 PM.
I installed the latest version of openSUSE which is fully supported on the PS3 platform by the developers; Novell.
It was slow as buggery. Might just be because I'm used to very fast systems, but hell I couldn't stand it. It's because the PS3 only has 256MB of XDR RAM - double that and you'd have a fast-ish system, but as it stands it's far too slow for the KDE and GNOME interfaces on openSUSE. Maybe Yellow Dog linux would have been a better choice, but I can't really be arsed to test that out.
But yeah, linux would be a good way to use your PS3 to download torrents, but it wouldn't exactly do wonders for the environment to leave it running for extended periods of time.
