i might be able to get such info as the url's of the streams because the guy in charge of that network is... My dad!... And no, the regular set-up boxes don't use active x to access the streams... They are not encrypted either. Looks like I'm lucky!!! :shock: :D

The only Linux distribution that currently works with ps3's is Yellow dog linux... And it has no option for live-cd (running from cd without accessing hard-drive) or live-usb(same things but with a pen drive...)

But the ps3 has a cell processor... And puppy for the time being is not compiled for it... So it would not work :cry: At least.. I think so.. :?:

I typed it and I get no output.. guess it works (I don't get command not found?) Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Here is my .desktop file.. it's called Hydrogen.desktop and when I click it in /usr/share/applications, Hydrogen starts.. Is that right?
