But there is a few application (amarok - big bloatware but I like the amarok services, umbrello, krusader, kile, etc) which is needed and I always have a full KDE install beside xfce. What is your strategy? You will not use any KDE related application or if something is needed you will install it separately? I'll try to avoid as many kde/gnome application as I can :) I don't really like them because I want to have my window in front of me right when click on the icon :). I just started to clean-up my useflags, changed to desktop profile and I'll leave my machine here for the weekend to re-emerge everything is needed for this change. I'm sure some revdep-rebuild and depclean still waiting for me and also I think lot of kde / gnome libs will remain because of the dependencies... Laszlo
