NewBie: removing tetex? adding gnome / login / passwords
I would like a couple of answers and help with my knoppix remaster.
First off, tetex takes up 90mb or so and if it's not necessary I'd love to get rid of it. From what I get off the net it's like a word processor or sort. Can it be safely removed? if I need to do something else please let me know
I would love to get passwords back and have a login screen (gui)
How can it be done? Can it be done?
I would also love to get gnome 2.2+ to be able to show to people the main guis after installation of a typical linux distro.
I've read the faq here on www.knoppix.net @ http://www.knoppix.net/docs/index.php/FaqInstall
Anything else I need to know about getting gnome working and is there any problems I should know about and what to do about them?

TeTeX Removal
I just gave it a try, removing tetex shouldn't cause too much of a problem. It's a text processor -- you create a tex file, run an executable, and output into a different file format. Interestingly enough, kpackage says debconf depends on it; according to synaptic, tetex-base and tetex-bin were just removed without any conflicts.
[Edit...]
While you're at it, you'll probably want to remove lyx ( the tex editor ) and auctex ( tex mode for Emacs ).

I have several remasters here some are Gnome 2.2 others is Gnome 2.4. It was tricky to get going but eventually it will install. Choose apt-get install gdm (gnome display manager) and configure Knoppix to use it instead of KDM. Tetex can be safely removed.
