All of these are valid choices. Yup. I have IceWM, just the window manager, running in a VNC X server. It's what I'm using right now. No "desktop" at all. Been doing that since Debian 7 or 8. With Firefox. Never had to reboot because of a Firefox update so I don't know why Grant got that. > If you don't like a package you just installed, "sudo apt purge" and > the package name will remove it and try to remove all traces of > its installation. I recommend adding "--autoremove" to the purge command in order to get rid of dependent packages that are no longer needed. Saves you from having to do them manually. -- Rich Pieri _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
