Is there any list > what I can safely unmerge in this case? I think we agree. Nowadays I use xfce because KDE is hungry and makes my system slower. 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? --=20 - - --=C2=A0 Csanyi Andras (Sayusi Ando)=C2=A0 -- http://sayusi.hu -- http://facebook.com/andras.csanyi --=C2=A0 ""Trust in God and keep your gunpowder dry!" - Cromwell
