Hi Guys,

Seeing as we have some example code of how to draw stuff to screen without linux and a working PS3 toolchain, I have decided to give porting SDL to this kind of environment. If anyone has started working on this, please let me know... thanks!

I hope to create a custom homebrew launcher with this in the future, where people can specify an app using xml and have it show up with an icon and description etc :) Like a mini app menu.

I've gotten SDL compiled under the toolchain now with all the dummy stuff turned on. I've applied for a new project under sourceforge called SDL_PS3. As soon as it is approved I'll drop all the code on there for everyone to grab.

Okay guys. SDL_PS3 lives here for now:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/sdlps3/

Basically a fork of SDL 1.2 for now, until it's good enough to submit as a patch. I've created the makefiles and configuration headers to get started and everything that is platform specific is stubbed out with the dummy implementations. Read the README.ps3 for more info...

When I started this, I suddenly realised that I don't have any of the drivers to read USB mice, keyboards, drives etc... :) I'm going to start prowling these forums for any brave souls writing USB drivers now :) In the meantime I'll implement so graphics stuff and get the test programs running. Time to get busy :)

very very good. I was thinking of that kinda idea, but from using this:
