How to remove Gnome2

2002-10-16 Thread Larry W . Irwin Sr . 

  I did an apt-get install Gnome2 today and wish that I had not. It appears to be far 
too large and slow for my 475 Mhz 96Mb system.

  I would like to go back to Gnome 1.4 but don't know how. I searched the mailing list 
archive and found nothing.

Gnome is too large and slow for most supercomputers.

Just remove the packages? apt-get --purge remove package
