Scribbles for my bad memory

Steps

1. Install cpupower:

sudo apt install linux-cpupower

2. Edit the init script:

sudo vim /etc/init.d/cpupower
# put the following content into this file
CPUPOWER_START_OPTS="frequency-set -g performance"

3. Enable on boot:

sudo update-rc.d cpupower defaults

4. Apply immediately:

sudo cpupower frequency-set -g performance

5. Verify:

cpupower frequency-info | grep "The governor"

Should output: The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use

Note: MX Linux 25 uses SysVinit.

Run regedit, navigate to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run then remove the line that contains "jusched.exe".

To make DOSBox automatically mount your ~/games folder as the C: drive every time it starts, you can edit the DOSBox configuration file. Here's how to set it up:

Steps:

1. Locate your DOSBox configuration file:

   • On Windows, it's usually found in C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\DOSBox\dosbox-[version].conf.
   • On macOS/Linux, it's typically found in ~/.dosbox/dosbox-[version].conf.

2. Edit the configuration file: Open the dosbox-[version].conf file with a text editor (e.g., Notepad on Windows or nano on Linux/macOS).

3. Find the [autoexec] section: Scroll down to the very end of the file until you find the [autoexec] section. This is where you can add commands that DOSBox will execute when it starts.

4. Add the mount command: Add the following line to mount your ~/games folder as the C: drive:

   • On Linux/macOS, add:

     mount c ~/games
     

   • On Windows, if you want to mount a specific folder, use the path like this (assuming your folder is in C:\Users\YourUsername\games):

     mount c C:\Users\YourUsername\games
     

   You can also specify different mount points or add other commands, but this one will mount your ~/games directory automatically as C:.

5. Save the file: After adding the mount command, save the configuration file and close the text editor.

6. Start DOSBox: Now, every time you start DOSBox, it will automatically mount the ~/games folder as the C: drive.

Example:

Here’s what the [autoexec] section could look like:

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
mount c ~/games
c:

If you need any more help with configuration, let me know!

1. Check which process holds the port:

   netstat -ano | findstr :<port>
   

2. Find the process name:

   tasklist | findstr <PID>
   

3. Kill it:

   taskkill //PID <PID> //F
   

4. Run as Administrator if access is denied. If the port stays stuck, reboot or disable conflicting drivers/services.

1. Install zoxide If you use Scoop:

   scoop install zoxide
   

   Or place the binary in a custom directory, e.g. C:\Users\David.Wei\bin.

2. Add zoxide to PATH (if not already)

   [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable(
       "Path",
       $env:Path + ";C:\Users\David.Wei\bin",
       "User"
   )
   

3. Initialize zoxide in PowerShell profile Find or create your profile:

   New-Item -ItemType File -Path $PROFILE -Force
   

   Edit it and add:

   Invoke-Expression (& { (zoxide init powershell --cmd j | Out-String) })
   

4. Restart PowerShell Use j <dir> to jump quickly between directories.

That’s all.
