Das PSXITA Team (ehemals/ zu PS3 Zeiten PS3ITA Team) hat eine auf Arch Linux basierende Linux Version für die Playstation 4 zusammengestellt.
Diese PS4 Version unterstützt Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, USB Soundkarten und bietet 3 D Harwarebeschleunigung, welche natürlich eine viel bessere Performance gibt. Es sind schon ein paar Emu´s vorinstalliert, wie RetroArch (linux), mupen64plus (Nintendo 64), epsxe (PS1), ppsspp (PSP) und Steam. Diese Distro soll auf allen Playstation 4 Modellen !mit Ausnahme der Pro Modelle.

Psxitarch Linux: A distro for the PlayStation 4
Psxitarch is a linux distribution for PS4 based on Arch Linux, developed to be light, not very resourceful and easy to install.
It includes the graphics drivers (radeon drm, radeonsi) needed to use 3D hardware video acceleration, kernel 4.14.14, support for * bluetooth, * wi-fi, ethernet and USB sound cards.
INSTALLED APPLICATIONS
Window manager: jwm
Terminals: lxterminal, xterm
Web Browser: midori
Network Manager: wicd
File manager: pcmanfm
Emulators / Games: Steam, retroarch (MULTI EMU), mupen64plus (N64), snes9x (SNES), epsxe (PSX), ppsspp (PSP)
Utilities: playonlinux (Gui for wine), leafpad (Text editor), htop (System monitor), xreader (PDF viewer), xarchiver (Archive manager), blueman (Bluetooth manager)
Multimedia: gpicview (img viewer), xnoise (audio / video player)
Other..
NOTES ON APPLICATIONS
If you have installed a new program and want to make it appear in the main menu go to Jwm Config and select Aggiorna Menu
If you want to start Steam use the voice Steam (Native), only if a game does not work use Steam (Runtime).
In Retroarch you will find only a few preinstalled cores (mame, genesis, turbograf and nes), you can install others by starting a retroarch and going to Online Updater and download cores . Some cores may require bios to function properly, copy them to /home/psxita/.config/retroarch/bios .
For those who ask, we have not included dolphin-emu in the distro because the recent versions in the repo and git do not work properly on PS4. We have compiled an old version and it seems to work with a simple "workaround" (you have to start dolphin together with glxgears), if you are desperate propio we can let you have it.
Kodi, has not been included in the distro for reasons of space, but you can easily install it and it should work without any modification.
*AUDIO: Audio via HDMI is not working but there are various ways to get around this
Use a USB sound card (found at a euro on ebay)
Streaming via bluetooth (if working) audio (you can use bluetooth speakers or headphones)
Use the Dualshock 4 (or the Nacon Revolution) connected via USB with a pair of headphones
* WIFI / BLUETOOTH
The wifi or / and the bluetooth may not work on some PS4 or be unstable, the reason is not yet clear (does not seem to depend on the model of PS4)
COMPATIBLE PS4 MODELS
Psxitarch supports all PS4 models except PS4 PRO.
On PS4 PRO the 3D hardware acceleration does not work, you will be relegated to that software, the reason you can find it here: http://www.ps3ita.it/forum/post43087.html#p43087
The distro is not free from bugs and imperfections but we hope this is a first step to make linux more accessible, hoping in the future to improve it thanks to your help.
