PS3 Linux - 2. Installing other applications
Installing
- As you have now seen you can install applications / games via packages / repositories. You then download packages that are partially pre-made for your system. That way you don't have to do much yourself and many things (such as dependencies) are done for you. This is one way of installing things (which also comes in different flavors). Another is to compile from source. This sounds very scary, but it generally isn't that bad (though sometimes it can be .... challenging).
The first thing we will be installing (following this guide) is SCUMMvm (chapter 2.1). This (and any other thing in this guide) requires you to be able to either download files on your PS3 or transfer them in any way to your PS3 system.
Also please note, I will be using KDE for the rest of this guide (with the resolution normally set to 720p). Although this should not be much different from other desktop enviroments it might mean things are in different locations for you. I therefor recommend that you also use KDE when following this guide. If you have not yet installed it I have a short guide on how to install it located in the menu above. As for the resolution, if you have your resolution set lower then 720p you will most probably have problems with menu/aplication's being bigger then your screen. This is no major problem and can be solved by moving menu/application's by pressing alt+left_mouse_button on the menu/application. You can then drag it around on your screen.
