There is the expensive option of HDFury hdmi->vga adaptor. this would allow the ps3 output to work on just about any monitor.

I wouldn't bet on the quality being worth talking about though.

VGA is analogue there is no way it will work with HDMI-DVI-VGA converters. You can use a HDMI to DVI-D cable and have sound going through optical out or through the Multi-out with the use of RC or Component cables. For a TFT screen to work it must be DVI-digital and not DVI-I and thats before HDCP compliance! That linux cable may work but i cant see the Multi-out port outputting much greater than 480p!

Why not? GT on the PS2 could do 1080i unless I'm very much mistaken.

He's right

A DVI to VGA adaptor will only work using a DVI-I source - that is one with an analogue component such as the output from your PC graphics card

HDMI is digital only - it's basically DVI-D with audio - so a DVI to VGA adaptor will not work
