Re: Deleting Applications
So, off free's message, I tried some things.
DiskUsage says 56820 KB available. becomeroot is installed. I open Xterm and do : sudo gainroot apt-get remove rhapsody-installer 56856 KB available apt-get remove libossoemailsmime 57564 KB available apt-get remove skype-installer 57580 KB available apt-get remove gizmo-installer 57592 KB available The numbers aren't large, but at least they're going in the right direction. I reboot, and DiskUsage says 59972 KB available. So I seem to be up 3 megs, and down some useless icons. No idea if I've trashed anything in the process. Certainly GeneralAntilles's suggestion of just deleting the .desktops is safer, and the diskspace savings is hardly staggering. Speaking of .desktop, the Rhapsody icon is still in My Selections. OpenSSH is installed, so using WinSCP I SSH in to /usr/share/applications/hildon/ and delete Rhapsody.desktop. While I was in there, I poked around at some other things. If you have Xournal installed, there's 8 megs of docs in usr/share/ghostscript/8.61/doc, including the fascinating Details8.htm, which is a 2.5 meg HTML file, Detailed History Of Ghostscript Verions. It's just possible that the system could run without that. This Linux stuff is fun. |
Re: Deleting Applications
You may have a 3 meg osso_software_copyright.pdf in /home/user/MyDocs/.documents.
Every little bit helps. |

Re: Deleting Applications
Welcome to Linux.
Find it and delete it. You can use xterm, emelFM2, SSH in from another computer, so many choices... Time to go search and learn some stuff. |
Re: Deleting Applications
If you enter red-pill mode a lot of additional packages appear in the application manager including the installed application list. Unfortunately the title part is too narrow and no obvious way to expand it.

Re: Deleting Applications
I removed one package manually
# apt-get remove osso-email-ui that saved 578kB I saw it would be slow one by one. # dpkg -l| grep osso-email | grep -v lib | awk '{print $2}' | xargs apt-get -y remove This removes just packages that have the word 'osso-email' in them, along with dependencies. Kinda interesting. Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: osso-email-engine osso-email-l10n-dadk osso-email-l10n-dede osso-email-l10n-engb osso-email-l10n-enus osso-email-l10n-eses osso-email-l10n-esmx osso-email-l10n-fifi osso-email-l10n-frca osso-email-l10n-frfr osso-email-l10n-itit osso-email-l10n-mr0 osso-email-l10n-nlnl osso-email-l10n-nono osso-email-l10n-ptbr osso-email-l10n-ptpt osso-email-l10n-ruru osso-email-l10n-svse osso-email-old-l10n-dadk osso-email-old-l10n-dede osso-email-old-l10n-engb osso-email-old-l10n-enus osso-email-old-l10n-eses osso-email-old-l10n-esmx osso-email-old-l10n-fifi osso-email-old-l10n-frca osso-email-old-l10n-frfr osso-email-old-l10n-itit osso-email-old-l10n-mr0 osso-email-old-l10n-nlnl osso-email-old-l10n-nono osso-email-old-l10n-ptbr osso-email-old-l10n-ptpt osso-email-old-l10n-ruru osso-email-old-l10n-svse osso-email-search-plugin osso-software-version rtcom-beta-os2008 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 38 to remove and 3 not upgraded.

Re: Deleting Applications
Update: System still works after killing ossomail
After removing all packages with osso-email, I found some otther lib packages for osso email while using red pill mode app manager. Only one thing left to fix. How to tell other programs to use claws mail? The browser's 'send link' function is not smart, really.. it just hangs.. PJ |
Re: Deleting Applications
Sort packages by size:
Code:
dpkg-query -W -f='${Installed-Size} ${Package} ${Status}\n' | grep installed | sort -nCode:
dpkg -L <packagename>Code:
dpkg -S <file> |
Re: Deleting Applications
When I cleaned apps out of my n8x0 tablets, I just used the app manager in red-pill mode.
Look at the dependencies of the app that you want to remove -- there is often a "dummy" package that groups a bunch of apps together, you need to remove this "parent dummy package" first and then you can remove the individual apps relatively easily... |
