OSX McAfee Removal

Removal of McAfee from OSX

Note: This was written in 2015, it may be out of date now.

There are a lot of commands here which I use sudo if you don't know what you're doing with sudo, especially where I rm you can severely screw up your system.

There are many reasons which you would want to remove a piece of software such as McAfee, such as not wanting it to hammer your CPU during work hours which seems like primetime for a virus scan.

I intend this to be a living document, I have included suggestions from peoples' replies.

Remove USB Guard From Ubuntu

Remove USB Guard From Ubuntu

If you're a sucker like me and installed usbguard on a Ubuntu variant you may find that you will have access to none of your usb devices at all, because F you. The installer automatically sets up the daemon which has no rules so will just block all of your devices. Doing a basic apt remove usbguard may fail at 25%, because also F you.

My kernel is version 4.15.0-47-generic, not sure if this stopped working at some point or what.

Regain Access

sudo echo "allow id *:*" > /etc/usbguard/rules.conf

sudo sed -i 's/PresentDevicePolicy=apply-policy/PresentDevicePolicy=allow/' /etc/usbguard/usbguard-daemon.conf

VirtualBox Headless Ubuntu/Mint

VirtualBox Headless Ubuntu/Mint with phpVirtualBox

I had a lot of trouble setting this up, the guides out there don't seem complete. I used various guides and troubleshooting sites to get all of this figured out.

NOTE: My server's internal IP address is 10.10.10.100, you will need to substitute yours where appropriate.

Linux Adblocked YouTube WebApp

I suspect this will work for any Mint/Debian/Ubuntu variant distribution.

WebApps

This requires a package called WebApps included with Linux Mint. You can download the source or deb file from their releases section, it is contained in the packages.tar.gz file.

Asus Pike 2008 IT Mode Cross Flash

Flashing Asus 2008 PIKE to IT Mode

Used on an Asus Z8PE-D18 board with no EFI boot options. These instructions were written using Linux Mint to create the media, most distributions will work with little modification.

The PIKE 2008 is basically a LSI 9220-8i which you can flash with 9211-8i firmware. Flashing to IT mode allows you to have direct access to the disks to use btrfs or zfs or some kind of software RAID instead of the card's RAID.

Get Your SAS Address

There is a sticker on the back of your PIKE card which has 16 digits starting with 5000. Write this address down or take a picture of it. Note I put XXXXXXXXXXXX in this picture as these numbers are unique to the card. If your card does not have this sticker, instructions will be provided below.

Enable Cheats PCSX2 Linux

Enable Cheats for PCSX2 Linux

This assumes:

  • You have the Linux AppImage and are successfully running games with it.
  • You have rudimentary commandline experience.

I'll be using Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel for this example, but the concepts should be the same for any game.
