I am trying to free up diskspace on the eeepc. I don't just want to turn gnome off. I want to remove it completely.
Milax is quite good but it is not fully IPS. So you can't image-update it. In a linux distro you can typically apt-get remove gnome or ubuntu-desktop and it is all gone. I do understand the IPS is still under heavy development. It would be good to be able get rid of gnome with something like: pfexec pkg uninstall gnome-desktop or something like that. For the moment I have snv_96. I am pkg image-updating and maybe tonight I will get gcc-dev and try to build LXDE. Then I can manually remove all the gnome packages I guess. Unless there is an easier way?? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
