Destroy any saved volume settings, forcing defaults:

sudo rm -f /etc/alsa/asound.state

Destroy the SSH host key, forcing regeneration on next boot:

sudo rm -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key{,.pub}

Destroy the Sugar settings, forcing a first boot name prompt, and fixing collaboration:

rm -rf /home/olpc/.sugar

If a developer key was ever requested using the Browse activity, or you are not sure, clear the developer key request file:

rm -rf /home/.devkey.html

If the laptop was ever registered with a school server, or you are not sure, clear the registration by destroying the GConf settings:

rm -rf /home/olpc/.gconf*

Immediately shutdown without restarting sugar, to avoid the .sugar directory being recreated:

sudo poweroff
