When the OLPC XO-1's software is upgraded, it installs a fresh image rather than upgrading individual components. Here are my notes on how to restore my settings.

  * Power Management
     * In the control panel in the center of the apps page, uncheck the power management options
     * To prevent suspend when closing the lid, sudo touch /etc/ohm/inhibit-suspend
  * run "init 3" to disable all of the GUI sugar stuff
     * when I run pandora, sometimes it stutters because sugar is doing stuff
  * turn off the screen backlight:
     * echo "0" > /sys/class/backlight/dcon-bl/brightness
     * turn it back on by writing "15" to it
