feedmegin posted:Why do you need another computer? It runs Linux, it has HDMI out, it has USB. You can plug it into an HDTV, mouse and keyboard and develop right on the board. Just to add, Linux on the PS3 only had access to about 192MB of total memory (64 megs of system RAM was reserved by the hypervisor and the video ram was generally unused) and was still capable of self-hosting even if it wasn't totally ideal. Hell, even PS2 Linux was generally usable and it only had 32 megs of RAM and a 300mhz MIPS processor. The pi developers also included the composite video output so that even people in places where HDTVs aren't the norm can use it.

mod sassinator posted:I've used a PS3 controller on Ubuntu with Sixaxis and it's kind of a pain in the rear end. On a Pi it's probably even more annoying if there isn't a precompiled binary. Using it is also annoying as it requires you to run a program in the background that will link up with the controller. It's not much help right now unless you want to patch and compile a custom kernel, but full Dualshock 4 support is currently being completed for future kernels. 3.14 adds support for rumble, LEDs and the motion sensors on USB and 3.15 will have full support for everything on USB and Bluetooth.
