I'm assuming that one needs to have linux installed on the PS3 to make this work; no?
which my ps3 is incapable of since they patched OtherOS away.

yeah  Sad I have that same issue..I have one of those new PS3 slim units..no way I can run any other OS on it. That's why it would be cool if somehow the mining app was made into a PS3 recognizable game Smiley I mean this should theoretically be possible no?


if you had the SDK i'd assume so.
go the official route which is like $10K

or this maybe (http://psl1ght.com/)
Code:
PSL1GHT is a lightweight PlayStation 3 homebrew SDK that uses the open-source PlayStation 3 toolchains to compile user applications that will run from the XMB menu (GameOS homebrew).


10K!! Pfff..forget that  Roll Eyes

So I guess there is no cheap way for non old generation PS3 owners to use this miner then.
