I don't know if you notice but EussNL made a backup of your repository in http://www.psdevwiki.com/files/OtherOSplusplus/ ; but it's not "up to date".

So if you want/can merge your latest changes (from gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/ but you told me you got it on your hdd) to this "new" repository, it would be awesome.

'''Changes from 2.6 to 3.x
--------------------------------'''
OtherOS++ page is freezed about linux howtos, deep changes has been done in the last year.<br />
If you plan to switch on Linux 3 thare are many things you need to know!
<pre>
SS_patch_CFW is NOT needed to gain full access to SS, even dispmgr_access.sh script!
All is done by new kernel drivers and userland tools: ps3vuart-tools replaces old ps3dm-tools.
/dev/ps3flash device:
Graf's drivers has been rewritten, no more /dev/vflash*
File /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-ps3flash.rules must be changed as:
NAND: KERNEL=="ps3flashf", SYMLINK+="ps3flash"
NOR: KERNEL=="ps3nflashf", SYMLINK+="ps3flash"
Wireless is fully handled by patches:
no more ps3_gelic.disable_eurus_ctrl_iface=1 boot parameter for NAND;
improved ps3_jupiter driver for NOR.
7th SPU:
boot parameter has changed to:
spu_base.enum_shared=1
(New ps3sed and ps3strgmngr should overcome the need of emer_init_patch, letting us resize the GameOS region.)
</pre>
----
It seems that with the 3.x kernels there is a bug preventing propper shutdown with usb keyboards atached:
solution is issuing before halting:
rmmod usbhid
place in /etc/init.d/halt in the begining of the do_stop() function <- this was tested in debian
PS: man i need to learn wiki syntax...

----
Don't forget to strip you kernel
(petitboot wont boot to it otherwise)
<pre>
ppu-strip --strip-unneeded /boot/vmlinuz-3.x.x
</pre>
'''[[User:skiski|skiski]]'''
Kernel 3.6.2 during reboot gives:
7 locks held by reboot/1601

Problem with usb keyboard still persists. Even after patching halt script reboot hangs ps3. But if you disconnect keyboard right after script starts reboot works properly.
