at the kboot prompt that appears try typing:

boot-game-os

This may launch the “PS3″ OS and reset the default OS to same?

About 40... Cant find the link just now. The compiling itself is not a problem, if your build environment is set up already (gcc, make and all that stuff). Then its like ./configure (if needed) make sudo make install I am coming from Debian/Ubuntu. Dont know if it differs much from YDL or Redhat!

Just compile VLC for it. Pretty much work, as you need many libs and such, but it works and has nearly all codecs with it! VLC is also my Windows Player of choice, as its sleek, easy to use and doesnt clog up your direct show filers with crap (like Win DVD does for example). In some time though, there'll be a ready package for it, for sure! Why cross fingers?
