Hello everyone!
I have two systems, one RH 7.2 and one RH 7.3 that are running fine, but =
we've determined that these systems will never, ever, under any =
circumstances, and by that I mean NEVER need to run a graphical =
interface. :-)
Why that wasn't determined at installation is before my time so the =
answer to that is "I don't know."
Rather than poking through individual RPM's and removing it piece by =
piece (fonts, browsers, gnome, etc.), is there a simple command line =
interface to remove groups of rpms at once, or to do the equivalent of =
the handy install tools that let you select that you don't want X or =
anything related to it? Something other than "rm" of course, and it's =
not important enough to do a reinstall.=20
There's no rush to get this done. X isn't causing any kind of security =
issues, and disk space isn't an issue, but I'd like to eventually remove =
it since it isn't needed. This is more of a learning exercise in how to =
remove something that's this integrated with the existing system.
Thanks!
Bill
