If I remember correctly libdvdcss (which is used by VLC) does not require the region of the drive to be set anyway.

yes.  if you use software that does not check the region, it will work.

No. I was quoting andrewdodd, who was talking about VLC, which is computer software....

For the love of jesus :p (hésus)

PS3 Games are Region Free

That means no matter what region your PS3 is USA, UK, ASIA or SEPHIROTH, your PS3 will play that game.

Blurays are region locked (THIS INCLUDES DVDs, because DVDs are also region locked...unless specified, like immigrant movies on ebay :p)

You cannot watch your REGION 1 HENTAI on your REGION 2 PS3.

DO WE GOTS THE IDEEAAZ

Boot PS3 Linux, install VLC. Watch DVD. Done?

Or does the lack of graphics make that fail?
