All, After initial install with the NET-install and LXDE as the desktop, I now have a number of unwanted services running. What I would like to know is what I can kill and what is hardwired into the 13.1 setup (before spending a couple of hours fumbling around). I would like to permanently disable: /usr/sbin/ModemManager /usr/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd \_ parcellite \_ /usr/lib/tracker-miner-fs \_ /usr/lib/tracker-store /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd /usr/lib/gvfs//gvfsd-fuse /run/user/1000/gvfs -f -o big_writes /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-udisks2-volume-monitor /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-afc-volume-monitor /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-goa-volume-monitor /usr/lib/goa-daemon /usr/lib/mission-control-5 /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-mtp-volume-monitor /usr/lib/at-spi2/at-spi2-registryd --use-gnome-session /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-trash --spawner :1.2 /org/gtk/gvfs/exec_spaw/0 I don't need Mod , this laptop has a software modem. I don't want bluetooth. I have klipper running and don't need parcellite. Where are these started? (as services or as part of some init-script?) I want to remove tracker completely. I don't want some multi-Gigabyte cache laying around somewhere. Are the caches in /usr/lib/tracker-*? Or are there more somewhere else? Why is gvfs running? I'm running kde3, do I need gvfs or is it just a holdover from the lxde install? Why is at-spi2-registryd --use-gnome-session in kde? Can I just remove at-spi2-core and libatk-bridge and be done with it? What is best here? rpm -e or disabling. If disable how? I don't want any of this running, so how best to get rid of it permanently without spending hours picking though configs? -- David C.
