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.

Enable Cheats

   git clone https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git
   sudo cp linux-firmware/amdgpu/* /lib/firmware/amdgpu
   sudo update-initramfs -k all -u -v

Enable T495 Fingerprint Reader in Ubuntu Variants

I'm currently on Mint 21.2 testing on a ThinkPad T495.

This pertains to any laptop with a Synaptics Prometheus MIS Touch Fingerprint Reader.

sudo apt install -y fprintd libpam-fprintd
sudo pam-auth-update

The edit common auth.

Download/install from: https://www.clamav.net/downloads

Open terminal

One time:

sudo cp /usr/local/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf.sample /usr/local/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf
sudo /usr/bin/sed -i '' 's/Example/# Example/' /usr/local/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf
sudo cp /usr/local/clamav/etc/clamd.conf.sample /usr/local/clamav/etc/clamd.conf

sudo /usr/bin/sed -i '' 's/Example/# Example/' /usr/local/clamav/etc/clamd.conf

OpenHAB on Low Power Hardware

Geared towards running on Dell Wyse 3040 ATOM CPU devices with antiX Linux with Nortek GoControl HUSBZB-1 Z-Wave and Zigbee.

The Wyse 3040 is a very basic 4 core 1.44GHz/1.92GHz (burst) Intel Atom x5-Z8350 with 2GB of RAM. Supposedly they average about 7.5 watts under normal load. They can be purchased for $35-100 on eBay (as of 2 Jan 2023). CPUMark on mine is 1,050, which is about 138 points higher than average.

Install antiX

I chose antiX as it is geared for low-end computers and it does not come with much installed on it.
