im using yellow dog which works fine. Have had my eyes on Ubuntu before, looks like a very interesting distro.

I am using YDL 5.0 atm because it is the official linux, but a workmate did suggest using ubuntu as it is easier to use. I may change to ubuntu later on down the track.

no ubuntu

as far as i know ubuntu doesn't support the pc64 architecture which is the ps3's. so you can't use ubuntu on it, i also want to add that there is another distrib working which is Gentoo Linux
