I think it supports WMV, DivX, and possibly other video codecs, but the range is very limited.
Unfortunately, neither xvid nor divx is one single codec, there are several different variations you can set when encoding, and the PS3 can only handle a subset of those variations. So just because a file is divx or xvid, you still can't be sure it will play. I still don't know exactly what it can handle, I just know I had to do some extensive fiddling with the enoding parameters before I managed to get it to play. Its "native" format is MP4, I think. I haven't tried too much with that though
Would tend to agree with this. Having installed Linux on my PS3 I was, to say the least, underwhelmed. The PS3 doesn't have a massive amount of memory available, and has limited the accessibility to the hardware (graphics in particular). Would make for a nice server I guess.
