So we lost our fight?

Just a thought, isn't PS3 doing some kind of monopoly (Antitrust) here? OSv3 for slim still support FAH but not linux. SO its clearly blocking other DC to succeed.

Simply does not understand the decision of closing PS3grid totally down.
Understand that it now does not make sense to attract new people, but as long as existing users are requesting PS3 WU's, you should deliver.
It is not a reasonable way to treat people who has spent time installing Linux and established a PS3 setup for PS3GRID.

...and which not in any way make things any better.

Ok, thanx, fellow crunchers, and project people - see you around. A sad day, but I guess there are only so many platforms a small project can support.

I have been running ap26 on primegrid for a few days now. It is not the same thing, but it seems worthy for now. Seems stable. You need to download another specialized Boinc client package, this one will not give any good performance.

I have been reading up on NVs business practices. I will buy a GPU eventually, but it will be an ATI. Hope you will support it at some point in time.

Bye all.

Well, it was fun while it lasted. And I enjoyed the experience of installing linux and playing with it. I have migrated to primegrid which is just as fine with me, I enjoy numbers as much as molecules.

It was kind of funny though to see you post request for donations also in PS3 forum Sep 3 as you already then had plans to wind down the PS3 support. Everyone can think of a suitable word for that, but I am happy I have not donated anything here and will not in the future either

Best regards and all success to your efforts

I just did my update on my ps3 thinking that it would be my last ps3grid work unit, and went back to system settings, choose other os and linux is still there!!! 3.02 if you send em we will crunch em.

thanks Phil

How many PS3 was running on 24/7 basis? How many new PS3 device has been added to the grid in the last 6 mons? and whats the rate (new ps3 added) per month?

If the number of ps3 device is sufficient to justify the cause, y cut it?

If newer PS3s can't have OtherOS, Then have it on XMB. Having FAH only on XMB is clearly a antitrust violation. I can't fight this with Sony but gpugrid can :)

A lot of people bought their PS3 especially for this project, and some even more than one. You should not ignore that. There's no reason to stop supplying work units as long as it works.
