| | - PS3 had OtherOS to boot Linux (no RSX GPU acceleration). The U.S. Air Force even built a PS3 “supercomputer cluster”. OtherOS was removed with FW 3.21 (April 2010) due to security concerns: George Hotz (Geohot) gained hypervisor-level access through it. Sony removing OtherOS lead to a lawsuit in US (and lost it) and actually accelerated hacking efforts of PS3. Hacks introduced OtherOS++ with unlocked RSX GPU but there are no 3D drivers for it. \\ |
