Hi,
how can I remove GNOME autostart from my installation? And, if it
isn't too hard for a beginner, how can I completely remove GNOME?

Thank you.

Somebody else asked the same question. Nice. Just go to YaST, sort on
repositories, I think and uninstall it.

You are standing at the end of a road before a small brick building.
Around you is a forest. A small stream flows out of the building and
down a gully.

Before I attempt to answer the question, what do you plan to use in it's
absence?

Try this as root, by typing "su" and "yourpassword" (w/o quotes):

<code>
rpm -e $(rpm -qa | grep gnome)
</code>

If it doesn't help you out, step into YaST, search for "gnome" (w/o
quotes) and delete everything.

If you wish to use another $DesktopEnvironment, go choosing a
$DesktopEnvironment that fits your needs, maybe "icewm" or "fluxbox".
Certainly you can go on installing KDE; just if you like.

But some Progs depends on GNOME'libs. So they were installed (kept)
anyway...

Good luck.
