Better to ask on the zerogame forum -- http://thezerogameproject.com/

It's not actually a program, but a script that configures your system a certain way. There might not be a simple "uninstall" method, though the changes it makes probably aren't so drastic that you'd need to reinstall.

There's no uninstall. If you aren't happy, just reinstall YDL.

@zerojay, looking at what the script does, maybe it wouldn't be too difficult to include an "uninstall" script, just creating backup files for anything that it replaces and having the "uninstall" script restore them?

It's not going to matter anymore. Sony's blocking other OS starting with firmware 3.21.

totally unistall zerogame will be very hard, you've to open the install script and search every action made by that code! (EVIL!!!!)

disable is very simple, just open /etc/inittab and comment out the last line where is the directive to auto login zerogame user!

best regards,

lorenzo

Ah... so you decide to run alpha software that is known not to be meant for end users and *I* am the one that's evil because I don't have an uninstaller? Uh... yeah, that's a new one.
