Of course it's *possible*, just matter of removing the relevant rpm's from the system :) "apt-get remove '.*gnome.*'" will do that quite effectively.. probably too much so for practical purposes though. To get rid of just the desktop stuff (and leave most libraries alone) "apt-get remove gnome-desktop" or a slightly bigger remove set with "apt-get remove libgnome". Or if you're not using apt, "yum remove ..." or a couple of iterations with 'rpm -e `rpm -qa|grep gnome`' will get you there as well. - Panu -
