Linux ported to Sony PSP | |
---|---|
Jan. 29, 2007 A self-described "world famous celebrity hacker" has managed to boot uClinux on Sony's MIPS-based PSP (Playstation Portable). Chris Mulhearn's port so far lacks support for key PSP peripherals such as the screen, but could interest hackers able to connect serially to the PSP's "remote headphones" port.

The PSP's serial port -- actually its "remote headphones" port -- is a low-voltage (0,+2.5V) RS232 port that can not be connected directly to a standard-voltage (-12,+12V) PC COM port, Mulhearn notes. He says he uses an FPGA development board (pictured below) to translate signals for the serial port of his PC. He also refers to sites that describe alternative methods.

Sony's non-portable Playstation 3, meanwhile, gained full Linux support the same month it shipped, thanks in part to open source contributions from Sony. |
