Use the application manager? Or better still Faster Application Manager...

Not sure why it's in /home/opt - can you paste a screenshot, or even better go to xterm and type:
Code:
ls -la /home/opt
and paste the output here.

The humanity-theme package only puts files in /usr/share/themes/humanity....

edit: And, once again: DON'T CROSS-POST

Code:
sudo gainroot
rm -rf /usr/share/themes/humanity
It may be necessary to reboot afterwards.

the terminal thingy seems complicated, i am worried i may ruin something doing something, sorry... i still see the humanity folders in opt/share folders thingy... and it still appears as a theme, i apply it but it's strange, looks like the default theme without any wallpapers... i wanna remove it with one simple command of the terminal, if there is :mad::mad:

are you sure it is complicated or you are afraid that it might damage your phone ?
if you are then shouldn't be asking for help and try removing it your self that way if you will harm your phone you wont regret i guess .

come on it is just a command which will give you some output which will help jedi to sort out the problem .

people here love the n900 and they will never ever suggest something wrong to anyone unless you have done something extremely silly .
