Hello,
Linux on Playstation 4 sounded great, so after researching and "making sure" of all the specifications were correct, I purchased my Pro.
The problem with being "sure" is, internet information is not always 100% accurate. I was hyped up and I spent time researching and I
expected positive results, in the end I got frustration and gaming communities that I queried never had a workable solution to my situation.
Should I have expected resolve to my problems following my questioning the "Internets"? Yes and No.
Why should a small margin of people who have almost insignificant problems get any answers to their questions?
How can one ask of someone a solution to an illegal manifestation in the first place?
What give us the right to illicitly exploit a product that is made with a main purpose and none other?
Is the Earth really round/flat?
Furthermore:
Why cant we get all answers to any of the questions we have? (here or elsewhere)
How can someone deny a solution to any manifestation?
What gives someone the right to decide what the purpose of a item is?
Why is the number 42 the answer but I am still lost?
If it is not obvious, I am split on the decisions that we all make in life.
Oh yeah, back to my situation and my specs. Hopefully someone has a working solution that I could put to use that would be fantastic.
Specs:
1)Sandisk 32 Gig usb 3 flash drive
2)(obviously)Playstation 4 pro Limited Edition Star Wars model cuh-7115b
3) Firmware 5.05
4)bzImage
5)initramfs.cpio.gz
6)psxitarch.tar.xz
7)Sharp Roku Tv
8) logitech wireless mouse and keyboard
9) manhattan wired keyboard(in case being wireless was a problem
10)wired hp mouse.(also in case)
Settings
1) Usb drive Format in fat 32
2)Playstation Resolution 1080p and tried 720
3) RGB Range Full
4)HDR 4 off
5) Power Save off
6)Enable HDMI Device Link Unchecked(also Checked box)
7)Enable HDCP Unchecked(also Checked box)
8)Used both Web page ithaqua. #5.05 Linux Loader and (VRAM1)
9)I tried psxita .it/ linux-loader and linux-loader-no-edid
Results
1) Playstation lost signal to tv upon execution of pressing linux loader button(s) or making a connection with the psxita website.
2)Playstation Shuts off completely
3) Playstation freezes when I start typing(blindly, I never see a signal after load web page)
Thank You for reading, please post if you may have a solution or have the same problems If I cannot fix this I may want to resell my two month old PS4 Pro(still on 5.05) and get another so if anyone knows of a PS4 Pro that will allow for Linux to run correctly let me know the model and cuh number.
Sincerely,
