Those two will completely remove the [package] off my system right?
apt-get --purge remove [package] the other one is correct. There are times when the removal script fails and it will tell you that it could not remove a directory because it is not empty in that case you just remove it by hand with rm -rf /path/to/directory/that/failed/to/remove.

Heh, I guess I don't believe in posting new thread so I'll say here.
I have another problem.
It's those simple problems where most of us are bugged by the looks.
The desktop won't save its setting.
The CD-Rom Icon keeps moving itself to the topleft when I try to move it to the middle of the desktop.
The Hda1 Icon won't save its icon. I use another icon, then it reverts back to original when I reset the computer. I have to double click on it for it to revert to the one I want it to, and it's getting really annoying.
And the start-up screen (where there is a few icon that lights up after you log in) will not change, is there a way to permanently change it to your image?
Thanks.
PS: I also have a firewall called "Firestarter". The only problem I have with it is.. why is it that everytime I boot up I double click on the script, sometime it works, sometime it doesn't, what's wrong?
