Guys, I think there was an error when explaining the 1Gb/2/3/4/5gb options on Linux. My understanding is that it is the actual split between RAM and VRAM assignation. So with 1Gb 7 went to RAM and 1gb to VRAM. I normally use the 3Gb one which is a nice balance.
Yeah this is correct
Also, Linux is running bare metal on the PS4, not in a VM
I agree maybe not enough being ram assigned to console was causing the issues but then again maybe not. The game itself is running within Linux not "on console" side .so you probably would want the ram for the Linux OS because the games is running within the OS. It depends on where the game is sitting in memory hard to say without having this or studying, I would say it's on OS though if guessing.
Yeah it would be way better to have a little more vram than system ram. 6gb ram for games is plenty
@@EnzoBergstrom o.
Really appreciate the shoutout! This was a great showcase of what's possible with a Jailbroken PS4.
Thanks for making your vids bro I modded my first ps4 like 3 weeks ago thanks to you

Never expected this crossway lol You're the man Modded!
Awesome having subscribed to both. Ltt is really good at shouting out channels
Ok, so Anthony is using an Xbox controller to play a Nintendo game being emulated on Linux, running on a PS4. Never seen someone represent so many communities in only one gameplay, what a champ!
A Linux person playing on a Microsoft controller? Don't let the Linux community see this video.
@@Mario583a ないす
Just proving that it's never been about the hardware in your hands, it's always been about the software in your heart.
Too bad there was no way to also somehow add SEGA to that mix.
@@Mario583a Heheheh... Too late.
The Bloodborne 60fps patch is indeed an absolutely insane project that Lance McDonald put a TON of work into. It doesn't JUST enable 60fps either, it also fixes the frame timing which is notoriously awful in the original version of the game. Lance essentially rewrote large portions of the game in order to make it all work. He worked on the patch for a LONG time and kept releasing updates before finally fully releasing it, after extensive testing on all versions of the game. He's also just extremely experienced with this sort of stuff too, he's also the guy who found the absurdly obscure "final secret" in Nier Automata years after it released when he found some unusual unused code while digging around in the game code.
sommonm should hire that person
Tasty lore
"Final secret" in Automata? Unused code? Is there something else besides the Ending E?
@@Estebanues Just a cheatcode after the first bossfight to skip to ending E, unlocks everything that E gives you (chapter select, trophy shop, etc.)
Unlocked the final secret in Nier Automata? I already love the guy. Seriously though that Bloodborne patch must've been a huuuge undertaking. What a genius.
Seeing Anthony be at the point where someone else is explaining stuff to him mid video Linus style is beautiful. So happy to see how far you've made it at LTT so fast!
If PS4 was priced like a "last gen console" (ie, we weren't having a chip shortage), this would absolutely be a great media center host.
If you want a media centre for the cheapest price, I recommend a Raspberry Pi.
@@Kromiball show me Rpi that is able to decode avc 10 bit or atleast hevc 10bit.
@@legendarnyplay A 8gb Pi4 could , but at that point an used SFF PC is a better buy, if you consider the price of the storage.
@@legendarnyplay Avc is old now. It's time for AV1
An old xbox one can run emulation with even up to date software. Probably a much better buy if wanting to also run last gen (and current for a bit) games.
I'm still salty about Sony removing the option to install Linux on the PS3. That was such a cool feature when it first launched! Glad to see geohotz legacy living on to this day though :)
There was a class action about that - I was one of the named litigants. Really pissed me off because I was running 8 PS3s running as a render engine, until Sony fucked it up!
@@PGGraham I'm not defending Sony, but why couldn't you just not update them?
@@Sparkette we didn't find out until after they updated themselves...
If you have an original launch 80gb you can get the patch from Sony to put Linux back on it by loading the 2.1 update which was the last that supported the Linux partition but it has to be a launch edition because you paid for the Linux OS on the original and it was advertised as part of the launch consoles included software
@@79huddy yeah, I have not had those for years. Once the class action failed, the company I worked for sold them all.
With Andy, you can always see his personal passion with the subject. Love that, it makes this so much more enjoyable!
Hello. I am the owner and founder of PS4 Trainer. Thank you for including it in your video :)
HES A MESSIAH
Faker
@@Maximus20778 Lol what even
Who cares
Obv not
9:52 The number says how much VRAM linux will have. it's there because PS4 has a total of 8GB that each game divides that 8GB to VRAM and RAM. and PS4's OS doesn't touch 8GB of RAM it uses 256MB of separate Memory in PS4 and 1.25GB of seperate Memory in PS4 Pro. Best options for gaming is 2GB or 3GB, 1GB if not gaming and 4GB or 5GB for expensive Graphical Work (Rendering).
"expensive graphical work" you say, now I want to render a Blender scene in it.
@@NotCerius any graphical work will be expensive on PS4
I get a great leap in performance using the 4gb payload over the 3gb, albeit at the cost of load times.
@@NotCerius **fans intensify**
Anthony is such a great host and so fluidly collaborates with others...The best kind of nerd. Love your content! ❤️
I appreciate all of the press and attention you give you the Linux community. You’re helping to get the word out in front of millions.
Playing Mario kart with a Xbox controller on Linux on a ps4… This is why I subscribed to LTT
That's the most ltt thing ever

This just made me realise that I can probably just install linux on my old ps4, which is sick because i was going to buy a crap laptop to mess around with. Perfect!
I would buy a raspberry pi, but if you can get a crap laptop for cheaper then maybe that fits your needs better.
IF i had a ps4 i wont ruin it
@@talharoxen You can't ruin it by doing this, the thing no one mentioned is the exploit is not permanent, once you reset the ps4 the hack disappears and you have to re do it everytime.
Linux is shit tbh Linus has a playlist which he installs linux on his pc for gaming and stuff And he suffers A LOT to make basic stuff work Like install linux,etc At the end of the episode linus admits that linux is shit and he goes back to using windows
@@aaaaaa-hh8cq he did NOT ever say that Linux is "shit", but he did have problems with various Linux distros, and the desktop Linux scene is very fragmented just like Android. Nearly all servers across the world run on Linux. Does that make it "shit"?
I want more anthony/jake doing more linux/raspberry pi/ home server setups. Personally I want to set up a realistic home server out of an old optiplex or something and use it as a nas/minecraft server/ media server and whatever else I might want. I have some rtlsdr dongles and it would be nice to have it set up on the server and then just stream the audio locally to what ever device I'm on.
this was an informative video, thank you now i need to take some time to think about what i should do to my ps4
At the very least, my PS4 won’t just collect dust in my media room because of the PS5 being around. That said, I always appreciate videos from Anthony (especially his Linux videos).

Anthony really is one of the best, also reminds me of my cousin.
ModdedWarfare is just a treasure. I recommend his channel to anyone interested in ps console jb and mods. Also, he gives credible info from its sources.
Just went there after this video. Just what a needed
I’d also recommend MrMario2011 as another terrific channel for this
@@ChillEpps Yep. I think I've used both of their videos to mod my 360 and PS3 several years ago. Pretty great channels with great info.
Yep Modded all the way. These soybois here are two months late.
@@mihabolil4o You really keeping up with the times being so fast with all the mods and stuff. So cool
You sir will always be my favourite "potential dad" Like the way you explain stuff and how you let humor just sip into your casual talk like damn This video made me happy And that's not just cause you have Linux on a ps4
This is the content I appreciate. Takes me back to when I had a PS3 with an early firmware, but never really played it. Sold it for a bit under retail after a year of barely using it. The fact it wasn't patched was a good thing.
So glad that LTT is making long form videos consistantly for a while now ie. more than 10 mins and not overly edited keep this up
Is that even longform?
Its ironic that we can emulate ps1 and ps2 games with this jailbreak and Sony still hasn't given the option to officially play games through backwards compatability on ps4 or ps5
I miss my OG ps3 because of this
@@Mewzyc agreed
Thats due to them adding it as a paid service for select titles when they drop their verse of game pass.
Maybe because it's a jailbreak... So Sony will not use a jailbreak to add a fonctionality (and it don't work on PS5 so that's 2 reasons)
even more ironic you can emulate any games with a built in feature on xbox consoles
Good to see you guys promote Boundary Break!! Love that guy
0:08 thicus tech tips
Glad to see more exposure to the console hacking scene, I recently got a modded PS4 to play around with mods and prerelease software, like the patched version of the Elden Ring Network Test, which was time-sensitive and was only available for a brief time to play, on a modded PS4 you can play it whenever and for as long as you'd like. There are also some full on leaked development builds with debug menus and stuff that have been patched to run on a modded retail unit, which are always fun to mess around with.

thanks for doing this vid Anthony . i was strugling to learn wahts what whan i jailbroke my ps4 love this guy .
Thank you modders. Now we can actually fully use the hardware we purchased
And what hinders you to use the console these days? Cut the crap.
@@ChrisGrump I don't think that what he meant
@@ChrisGrump he ment use it with all the functions it can process as a generic computer in hardware.
@@ChrisGrump the same thing that stops you from doing whatever your phone prevents you to do without a jailbreak in Android. from changing resolutions, removing unwanted software, installing different functional operating systems, or basically anything to treat your device however you can imagine. either you're the one controlling your computer, or it's the computer controlling you. if you're not controlling it, it controls you, and whoever "owns" the software controls the computer. therefore, those owning software controls you.
@@ChrisGrump The PS4 uses an X86 instruction set CPU from AMD. The same kind used in desktop computers. As demonstrated in the video, it is essentially no different than any desktop PC, except it has been artifically locked down. Thanks to modders we can finally use our sony PCs for more than just gaming.
I love the jailbreak and console modding Anthony content pls keep it up
Anthony is such a nice and naturally funny guy. Easy to listen to.
Seriously!! I think he's got that special caidence where you can turn your brain off and still listen lol
6:15 They do this since DS1 and probably Demons Souls aswell. The DS1 Fix for example made playing DarkSouls Prepare to Die Edition on PC in 60 FPS possible but since fall damaged was tied to how many frames have passed since you last stood on solid ground, you usually got double the amount of fall damage...
I didn't think you guys will upload a video on this. but i'm glad that you did.
I absolutely love Anthony in this role. Keep up the killer work dude! Love hearing someone explain to you how the testing went.
They should give Anthony his OWN channel, that would be epic
He's humble yet has enough expertise, I think it's a good mix.
His laugh is so adorable
Hi bot 👋
Thanks for recommending modded warfare I am interested in learning this more
Seeing my fav tech channel explaining buffer over flow exploit is cool
Yeah, Lance put a lot of work into that patch, and like demonstrated, he has dove deep into the dev debug options and a lot of cut content.
Gosh, that animation for a buffer overflow exploit is PERFECT.
That intro was killer. Great editing.
Already running goldhen and I'm having a blast with it ! Highly recommend if you have the required PS4.
Since some PS4 exclusives have come to PC I've had less use for my console, so this would make an interesting project.
You also got to love the community for the long term commitment of some of those projects, and the future benefits. For instance now a Wii costs next to nothing, and is probably the most convenient way to play Gamecube Games (and much more) with good RGB output with the cheap official cable, or HDMI with a cheaper (than GC) adapter. PLUS for us Europeans, we have access to higher framerates, or better resolution depending on the version of the game played. Same for the OG Xbox ! I can't wait to see what's next, particularly with single + Multi games that have so much content online (Forza Horizon 4 ?) that will die when the official servers die.
Thanks for the nod guys!
At 5:55 - ahhh the good old ‘PlayStation Jet’ sound in the background. 😆
Keep the Anthony videos coming! He's so pleasant to listen to 🥺👉👈
Hope this means this’ll bring more attention to the PS4 home brew community 😄 awesome video!
How to do I get the buffer file on the usb ? He skipped that step
I am definetley going to try this! My original PS4 is sitting there gathering dust, and just being able to bring up a Linux desktop environement will ABSOLUTLEY make it worth pulling out of the cupboard.
The Xbox One and the Xbox Series consoles remain the only major consoles in history that have yet to be jailbroken, according to MVG, due in no small part to Microsoft allowing homebrew to run on their consoles without the need to jailbreak them, starting with the Xbox One (even the "VCR" version). It's genius to consider social engineering as an important part of security. The more you let people do with their devices without jailbreaking, the less effort will be put into jailbreaking them people! Learn this lesson!
i do hope some people will still try to break it open - even with microsoft's goodwill gesture, we do not know how long they're gonna support the microsoft store for the oldest xbox one for example. but it's still really cool that they allowed it on their platform
@@imtilda Microsoft have started closing down developer accounts used to access homebrew arbitrarily from Feb 2022
@@imtilda Since Microsoft's store for the Xbox 360 is still open 16.5 years later, I think the oldest variant of the Xbox One is safe for a long, long time. Given Microsoft still invests engineering into MS-DOS compatibility in new version of Windows to this day, I think Xbox is quite safe. :)
They also make money from you buying a dev account
I have an original PS4 running 7.50 OS and have a 6TB 2.5" HD installed. I stopped using it on-line a a while back as the on-line games I was playing were just being filled with mod gamers and cheaters (GTA / BF4 etc). The Linux side I've never really played, and the cheats side I never could get to work properly (constant game crashes). But I do use it for the softmod jailbreak.
Online cheating on PS4 isn't really a thing. The only "cheat" is unlock alls in gta that have been brought over from ps3
@@dankmemes3447 Online cheating on every platform is absolutely a thing, just less common in some.
@@vhuyjgvyj if you count glitches yes, but actual software hacking like mod menus or aimbots haven't been around on the ps4/xb1 because there never was an exploit that would've allowed it
@Watcher and from where would that ai know where the enemys are if its just emulating a controller?
@Watcher that would technically work, but i doubt that many people would use this. You would need a really good computer to process the graphics card output fast enough for it to work reliably. And at that point you could just play on the computer with better cheats Edit: capture card output*
Another big bonus why you should try this: Some day the PSN won't be accessible from your PS4 anymore, then you can still get a lot of use from your old console, even though you might have to sail the high seas with your Jolly Roger.
I have wanted to see linux on a ps4 I am so happy to see You Doing This Reminds me Of Linux on the Ps2

LTT and comparing addblocking to piracy
Reminds me of the old PS2 exploits, especially for the old Fat version with a HDD installed. Loved some of the home brew with Geotron and Mario Wars. Wii also had some decent home brew. I don’t play video games much anymore but I think I had just as much fun exploiting consoles as I ever did playing the games. I even remember coming up with my own codes for the game genie on NES.
Wii Homebrew is pretty sweet and also alive and well. Because all official support from Nintendo has ended you can crack the latest Wii software and never have to repeat it again. I have NES, SNES, Gamecube and Wii Loader all on there. My kids play it a lot which is surprising but I think it is mainly because NES and SNES are more straightforward than modern games. The other nice thing is a used Wii is basically free. When friends of ours found out the kids play video games they handed us their old systems with a box of games and controllers.
I love Anthony videos! What a great guy.
Anthony you legend. (And team) wish this video came out 3 weeks ago so i could of helped out a customer! Hopefully they come in again for games and i can explain and show them this video. Wish you showed off red dead 2 and mods. A lot of people want to mod RD2 and play as animals. Legit every parents child in 2021/22. Cheers again!

Wow I may actually try this hack, I literally haven't turned on my PS4 since early 2020 and it's a base model not pro. It's literally just my Bloodborne machine now since GoW and HZD, and other "exclusives" were ported to PC. Thanks for all the info Anthony you're the G.O.A.T!
Smartest guy on the channel. Can't believe they kept this guy in the background for so long. You go man!
In the PS3 a thing called "Firmware Spoofer" existed. It was a modification that allowed you to change your version without actually updating the PlayStation and this was really famous because you could play online games and download things from the store without updating. Maybe on the PS4 it also exists?
Nope the devs don't want to support online at all because off online modding.
Exact same thing on the PSVita when H-encore and HENkaku became the best option for modding
"Before you buy a PS5, try this!" (I see the sneaky title changes!) Hi Anthony!

8:02 finally my man "MODDED WARFARE" is getting some attention. This guy is god send, helped me setup up so many of my consoles.
Anthony thank you. You are a god send to the Linux community, showing stuff like this truly shows the power of Linux and what it ACTUALLY brings to the table if people where to actually acknowledge it as a platform. Linux is adaptable and can run on everything!! Halo on PS4 via Proton on Linux. I hope this opens eyes and changes the negative stigma against Linux more towards lets hope Linux succeeds!
This is awesome, now I just need to really annoy Sony by installing Windows and running a PS1 emulator 🤣
You won't be able to install Windows on PS4, it's simply not compatible. A lot of people are mistaken that PS4/5 is just like a PC but the truth is that its hardware is very different, Linux needed many tweaks to simply boot, and many more for supporting its various hardware. Windows is not that flexible since it's not open source, I am not saying that it's impossible, but I doubt we'll see that ever happening.
There are PS1, PS2 and I think even PS3 emulators in linux

Best explanation for buffer overflows ever😀😀😀
Wow this is really innovative, never seen this before (Xbox Gen 1)
And the thing is, the Steam Deck is going to be like this out-of-the-box. PC-like mods and running emulators and everything, without needing to hack anything, as it's meant to be a "portable PC" out-of-the-box and SteamOS 3.0 is Linux already. Funny thing is, I reckon the Steam Deck will suffer LESS privateering than the locked-down consoles, exactly because you can mod games and do other interesting stuff, without needing to hack the system and the games. So, generally, leave Steam's DRM in place, because you don't need to subvert it to get mods and emulators and dev menus working (as long as the game itself plays ball). Therefore, you can leave the DRM alone, if it's not getting in your way to do interesting stuff with your system and, without that motivation, folks will generally not bother. Because, you know, hacking stuff is an effort - and if you don't have to make that effort, then you just won't.
right. Why bother going through so much effort to essentially try to turn your PS4 into something it's not, when there are so many options that perform this exact function. This is why consoles died and essentially became PCs with less customizability and included gamepads. At the end of the day, everyone is going to want to have a PC or mini PC whether they like arriving at this conclusion or not. I saw another video about the latest PS2 SD card mod (like GD emu for Dreamcast). It's like sure, you can give your PS2 a hard drive and make it like a PC....or you could just leave it as a PS2, as it was intended, and use your 3 year old Android phone to do the same thing
This is so ballin! I have a PS4 that hasnt been turn on in over a year at least I been waiting for a exploit that would be worthy I think this may be the one. As long as you can play ripped game files for PS4 on it as well as the other emulator's this seem great. Also I think it would be great using Linux it would be nice to run it on the PS4 hard drive though not the USB. Possible an external hard drive for a faster piece of hardware. Anthony you always bring us the best jank there is. Why even have every console known to man when you can have one console do it all. So sick awesome I love hacks.

@@notscar hmm they have it on 9.0 it looks like. Wonder if it's locked to that version or what. Or could you possibly update from fake server. They use to have that for iPhone so you could update or change the firmware to the version that you wanted. It would put up a fake server for firmware validation on the computer just like the handshake itunes does with apple instead it spoke with this fake one thinking it was apple and it would say back yes this version is ok to use.

I love this kind of stuff. Remembers me of the old PS3 days, I was one of the first ones who got a JB, it was just ridiculous what you could do with it and almost no one knews it, that's why even going online and PSN store stuff were no problem in the beginning... Interesting times... 😊
Remember the original PS3? Yes, the one that allowed Linux OS without any workarounds, directly prompting you to install it straight from the main menu. The one that came with Folding@Home preinstalled, had 4 usb ports on the front to run files or save games from external HDDs, didn't require PSPlus membership monthly fee to play online games, had not only the PS3 CPU but also the actual PS2 Cpu chip to allow full hardware backwards compatibility for all your old PS1 and PS2 games. The last good Playstation console made... RIP!

I could watch Anthony talk about homebrew on consoles forever. I wish I had this job.
Isn't Japan the land of Ninjas or something? I'd be kind of afraid to do that to Sony since they could send ninjas to do ninja stuff to me.
Anthony is honestly the only reason I keep an eye out on Linux Tech Tips... He should definitely have his own playlist.. love the content.. keep it up :)
Videos like this really tempt me to open my sealed PS4 and try something but I also want to hold on to it for a while so Idk. Maybe I can get a used one cheap sometime
This was possible on the early PS3s, with support from Sony! Which they then reneged on later...
And even sued a kid who found a way to restore it. It was one of 3 scandals that made me permanently boycott Sony.
My PS4 Pro has been on Linux since 2019, I've been using it to 3D model and 3D print. It runs a good chunk of windows applications I need to edit 3d models, it's not for everyone but for my use case it has been extremely helpful. Remember when consoles struggled to load up their own hacks? now we're using full desktops in just 4 console generations...
does it run games good too? im considering it since my pc cant run any game
@@crimsonkarma13 it can run PC games, but that's going to be highly dependent on the game itself, if the game is highly CPU demanding it's not going to run particularly well. I have a PC that's using an Athlon 5350 (pretty much the 4 core version of the CPU in the PS4) with a GT 1030 and 8GB Ram, I ran Elite Dangerous, American truck sim, and even tried out Fortnite (using the performance API), BeamNG Drive, and quite a few older games (300FPS in Half life 2) and they ran pretty decently. But it's also going to depend on how well the game is supported in Linux using proton/Wine because you can run into issues there.
@@madmax2069 Have you tried React OS on the ps4 yet? I wonder if not having to use WINE would make much of a difference
I wanted to come back to this comment to say a bunch of people in the PS4 homebrew scene have made huge advancements in the world of PS4 Linux and the ability to run PS2 games on the software emulator, for example Need for Speed Underground 2 when converted to PS4 Pkg now runs, and not only runs but will run in 4K 60FPS... I can't believe how well some of these older games look on the Ps4 system (I know it's possible to run retroarch within Linux on the Ps4, but the ease of PS4 Pkg's beat this entirely).
I love that you hearing a starting jet while he talks.
Speaking of great tech! I just got these awesome knitted wool headphone covers for my Sennheiser HD 480 headphones! My Mum knitted them for me! I had the idea one night, told Mum the next morning and the diameter of the speaker cups, I gave her the headphones that afternoon and she had them ready and brought them over the next morning! Mums are the best! These are now my lucky headphones!
Just in the first 10 seconds, anthony plays mario kart with an xbox controller on a ps4, with linux... 10 seconds to portray all sides huh
Honestly Lance McDonald has probably some of the best content around souls games on youtube he never ceases to impress me
genuinely one of my favorite streamers too lol
There was an excellent talk from FailOverfl0w a few years ago at a CCC meet up about writing one of the initial exploits and patching Linux to run on the ps4 if you're interested in the more technical details.
I enjoyed the disembodied voice in Anthony's head telling him what to do.
well, considering that it has LINUX in there, I wonder how easy it would be to compile in the modules for say the screen reader like orca, or BRLTTY, or anything else that would make that device very usable bias blind users.
Hi I am a blind user to lol
Playing a Wii game, on a computer operating system, on a PlayStation console, with an Xbox controller. You really couldn't decide what you should buy for gaming huh?
DO MORE SERVER UPDATE VIDS! and show us how you organize everything!
(Not to be toxic with favorites I love allnof the ltt team) but I gotta say, Anthony does like all the retro/mod stuff and that stuff is always my favorite and I get excited watching mainly videos with him mostly in them esp since he speaks so eloquently about information and it's legit helped me do so many of my fav things to do and if I forget a website or how to cut down a retro board im like "ok gotta go back and watch some Anthony". I truly believe he belongs to this small minority of gamers who like really know exactly what hes talking about all the time with exact detail and these random hack/mod websites he legit just knows off hand. Im here for it and he's fucking awesome.
There’s something so amazing and wrong but right about watching Halo: Combat Evolved run on a PlayStation lol.
Mario Kart on a Playstation running Linux using an Xbox controller. I totally love it.
Loved the video. Unfortunately this video was release too late. Many people knew that Linux can be installed on PS4, infact PS2 too.
nice! thanks for posting..
