All the startup (or shutdown) scripts I can think of that could return the filesystem to a pristine condition... they also undo customizations you may be wanting to retain. - nuke everything from /home/olpc except activities, we may be removing customizations (custom gnome background, or desktop icons, for example) - reset /etc to the pristine etc -- may be removing desired customizations - reset / to the pristine OS filesystem -- may be removing desired customizations Booting into Sugar or GNOME for the first time has makes some changes to the filesystem -- these change with each OS version, and they change with additional sw, so they are hard to track. Installing additional software, configuring things also makes changes to the filesystem -- some intended, some "side-effects" you'd want to undo. It's impossible to write a magic script that guesses what you want to keep, and what you want to discard. Unless until we get the driver sorted for that that USB-2.0 mind reader James has been talking about. So in the meantime, do tell us what your frustrations with OOB are. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- Software Architect - OLPC - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
