I am not exactly sure what you mean by "direct rendering", but I am
running OpenGL on my PS3 (to a monitor, not via ssh) and it works
fine. It is not accelerated (hopefully soon it will be, with the
great progress being made at ps2dev) but it is pretty fast (I can
smoothly rotate the glut teapot in real time). You need the GLX item
in your xorg.conf. ("load "glx"") in the modules section.

Hi,
Will YellowDog support direct rendering for the PS3? I'm trying to
find a display platform that will run OpenGL, that's PowerPC based,
and runs linux. I was thinking the PS3 with YellowDog would be
that platform, but direct rendering is not supported.
Any ideas if this will be supported in the future, or any ideas on
servers to use? We were using a PowerMac G5, but with Apple going
the way of non-PowerPC chips, we lost that option. IBM doesn't
seem to make any servers that have good video support, except
really expensive stuff running AIX.
Thanks for the help!
