I just read this and thought some of you savvy programmers might find this useful. http://linux.oreillynet.com/pub/a/linux/2002/03/21/linuxps2.html Go here, it''s an article on how Sony is realeasing a kit for the Playstation2 that includes: Linux OS 10 for playstation2, 40 gig hardrive, ethernet adapter, USB mouse and keyboard for only 200 bucks! What this will allow people to do is program on their Playstation2! Sadly, there is no OpenGL graphics library included, but they have a simplified version of OpenGL under another name, and Mesa, which is basically OpenGL. Anyway, though you might want to know that. Check out the article, it''s on O''Reilly.com so it is a good one. "Donkey, if it were me, you''d be dead." I cna ytpe 300 wrods pre mniute.

Heh, I''m a dumba$$. I just did a Google search and this came up. I''m sorry for the misinformation and will be more thorough from now on. Flame at will.

But maybe the really savvy programmers could port an operating system and OpenGL to the playstation 2. It was done on the Dreamcast and it''s architecture was nowhere near as PC based as the Playstation 2. Maybe someone has the CAJONES to man up and write some code... I''ll start working on it.

It shall be known that I am not a noobie. So f*** off. It shall also be known that the games I write are currently ported to the Sega Dreamcast, a$$wipe(neurokaotix).

Eh. Learn to take a joke before you go calling other people an "a$$wipe."

there already is OpenGL for native PS2.

OpenGL for PS2

To the vast majority of mankind, nothing is more agreeable than to escape the need for mental exertion... To most people, nothing is more troublesome than the effort of thinking.

Um, I''m sorry. Thanks for the link jenova! (noone is an a$$wipe.)
