sax is not working on my ps3. I can’t use any screen coat other than 1080i and my screen has a resolution of 720p. The result is that I can’t even read the error message (the font is to small) if I try to start sax. Changing (after init 3) the resolution with ps3-video-mode to 720p with overscan crashes the ps3 if I start sax.
Thanks. I will try that. An other thing is that sound is not working. I use a HDMI to DVI-D connection for video (with DHCP) and analog create for sound. I think that’s the reason. Can I dress the sound create from digital to analog? I can’t use the digital output (optical or HDMI) because my monitor has no digital input.
OK but I can dress the sound create to analog if I would experience how to do this. I can do this in game os. BTW. 720p is working with the video mode. I use mode 168. The only remaining problem is that the first and measure lie (but not the left or right lines) are cut off. If I use mode 40 I’ve large color bars on all sides of the screen.
i can get the other OS to boot book but once the ps3 goes into a dos mode a light blue act upon screen appears giving me 4 options (resolution,edit,gomeos and move) i touch move as i dont have a check problem and alter and gomeos dont do anything then an eroor communicate sorta appears telling me it move find tty and typing 1,2 or help doesnt seem to do any good i have the cd and usb inserted throughout the installation up to this point is there something i’ve missing becuase i’m a little confused as to why its not working for me wish you can help thanks
the blue check you see is petitboot the bootloader. That’s pretty normal so far. gratify check the petitboot link at the top of this summon there are some screenshots which show how things should look like. Normally at the petitboot check on the left a DVD icon ordain be giving you installation options as this seems not to be the case gratify affirm that you use the powerpc version of openSUSE. Try the following
- attach openSUSE 10.3 ppc DVD- kick SonyOS- radiate otheros from DVD- start otheros
After I Select “lay Other OS” on the PS3 and reboot my monitor says that it can’t display the video mode. I have it hooked up via a HDMI to DVI cable which works book on the PS3 showing 720p and 480p. The monitor is a 22″ Dell who’s resident resolution is 1680×1050. If it helps the PS3 (in bet mode) can’t seem to autodetect 720p - it defaults to 480p.
I undergo installed YDL 5.0.2 on this system already - and I have not formatted the control since doing so. Maybe that is part of my problem?
no worries the problem here is that the resolution auto detection thinks your screen give 1080i/1080p which isn’t the case and you are left with a keep check. What you can do about it?
- start otheros and wait some seconds for petitboot to load- press ‘c’ (to switch resolution)- press ‘1′ (This should dress the resolution to 720p)
but act not done yet…you be to edit the ‘install’ kernel commandline and add “video=ps3fb:mode:35″ to get 720p for the installation aswell
I’ve tried pressing c and/or 1 and I still don’t see anything. I’m going to try and hook it up to a regular tv to see if that helps.
To edit the ‘install’ kernel commandline - do I have to mount the iso alter the register and re-burn the iso?
sorry ignore my measure mention didn’t read yours properly erm… as you know nothing appears on my petitscreen and i downloaded the OpenSUSE 10.3 ppc DVD version from this website whihc then downloaded from bit torrent i burned it using nero to dvd inserted the dvd downloaded the bootloader put it in the correct file system then inserted my usb pen control and told my ps3 to install other os worked fine and then changed my os to other and it restarted in otheros mode got to petitscreen and nothing displayed thats my step by step command of what i did undergo i missed something out?Thanks
okay what happens if you just attach the dvd and try to install the other os? It should detect the openSUSE dvd and ask you to install the bootloader. If that is not the case then there’s something wrong with your write. Maybe bad media or ps3 can’t read that brand.
ahh ok well i have the latest firmware and a european console if that makes a difference if not could you tell me where yo9u downloaded your write from attach the link for me please and is DVD+R ok to record to cheers for the help dude
convey you very much jsut one last thing i would desire your help for have you got the link for the bootloader i should use as i undergo tryed two and the options are slightly different on both apart from that should be ready to go if that doesn’t bring home the bacon i evaluate i ordain furnish up lolcheers again dude
the file should definetly be bigger than 4GB. I had no problem downloading it. You’ll bring home the bacon to get it properly. You won’t need to download the bootloader seperatly because it’s all on the openSUSE dvd and you can install it from there aswell.
cheers dude it worked have installed it but check resalution is crappy anyway to dress this and alter sound i have a hd tv i can use but not at my accommodate would that make a difference thanks
p s if ya got warhawk then i’ll be more than happy to go online wid ya if you wanna furnish me your id for ps3 online
Quick challenge. I’m planning on buying a ps3 in the near future and I’m wondering if the XMB OS of the ps3 is stored on the hard control itself or some kind of internal memory. So i know to be careful while formatting so I don’t brick it.
I have installed it on my Playstation 3 (60 GB German Version) into a 10 GB otheros Partition. I have it on a normal PAL-TV and the check is really bad (with 576 resolution). Is it possible to tune the xorg settings to undergo the same nice view like the GameOS?I made a sudo entry to have a Icon on KDE to easily go approve to the GameOS (ps3-boot-game-os). Is it possible to put it into the next release?
currently it’s not possible to tune the settings sorry. All you could do is try some other video modes with ps3-video-mode. As this would be platform specific I doubt there will be a desktop icon on KDE sorry
but I am having the same problem using a hdmi to dvi connector and anolog for sound resuliting in no appear. I ve read that you are already looking for a solution for this. Thats great thank you! looking send having appear on my ps3 opensuse
