I need to reset the BIOS. I took a look into my laptop, but the CMOS battery and the jumper are covered with a lot of stuff and I don't feel like taking all of that out. So is there a way of resetting the BIOS using Ubuntu?

modprobe nvram
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/nvram

Then reboot.

This resets the CMOS memory on most systems.
