Yep, you got that right. diabolix was able to compile an Xbox360 controller driver for [Only registered users can see links. ] Core 5, which means that if you're running [Only registered users can see links. ] on your PS3, you can now use the 360 controller with it!

diabolix says that this has been tested with [Only registered users can see links. ] and Doom under FC5-PPC. Here's the usage instructions:

• Copy this installer to your PS3 s HDD linux partition and connect your controller via USB.
• Run install-xbox360-driver.sh initially from the terminal
• Enter your root password (if you aren t root already), and there ya have it, a functioning Xbox360 controller on your PS3!

Unfortunately, this doesn't work for [Only registered users can see links. ] as it only works on Linux. But hey, if you're all for diversity then by all means, download the driver below.

I don't really understand the purpose of running Linux with a Xbox 360 controller when you have a PS3 controller but hey, what ever floats your boat lol. If you feel more comfortable using a Xbox 360 controller then this application is great for you. Don't forget to leave your comments/feedback here.
