Hi there, I want remove xdm package so I'm not using it (I've remove all links related in all runlevels, but I don't need this using hard disk for more). But if I try an apt-get remove xdm it also removes x-window-system... why? I think this is a bit stupid... Finally, I've removed it using dp

[SOLUTION] Re: Troubles with SCSI LUNS (IDE CD-RW with SCSI emulation
