If it really is all of Gnome and X11 that you want to uninstall, you can trying uninstalling Gnome and then X11 in the "Category" view, in that order and one at a time. If you need to uninstall individual packages, then try Andy's suggestion. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc. (508) 893-9779 - RFK Office 216 Dalton Rd.
