After an hd install on a system with limited disk space I thought I'd clean off the bits of Knoppix that I don't actually need... most of this went fine, just a couple of probs.
(1) How do I purge the system of openoffice.org - nice tool, just too bulky in this case - it gets installed in /opt/openoffice and while I could just delete this directory it won't purge the system of the config files and remove openoffice.org from the 'KDE menu'.
(2) What about getting rid of KDE...? It's eating too much memory and I'm quite happy in something like evilwm. I've tried apt-get --purge remove kde*, but that wants to remove a whole chunk of other things that I'd rather not lose like hotplug, initrd-tools, pcmcia-cs, and others... I've removed bit by bit a bunch of KDE apps, but that's a pretty time consuming and not particularly helpful... surely there's a neater way of doing this?
(3) I guess I also don't need the knoppix specific stuff... it's a great installer, but some of that stuff ain't necessary if a hd-install is supposed to be just plain ole' Debian!
Many thanks...
