Hi *,
I have two machines running Leap 42.3. Both used to provide a graphical login for quite a long time, but they were turned into pure server machines, that don't need graphics any longer.
What is the easiest way to get rid of all programs and libs belonging to kde, gnome, lxde, ...? I tried to uninstall the according patterns, but the list of packages to be uninstalled contains programs and libs that are vital for the system, too.
Fire yast, sw_single. Display by patterns. On the right hand panel, click to remove packages with kde in their name, one by one. If they want to remove others by dependency, say yes. Or go directly to the "X Window pattern". Before uninstalling anything, review the rest of the patterns, and make sure the ones you want are installed (click twice on them, perhaps): generic server, console tools... -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.
