I think the command would be something like sudo yum remove gnome-desktop Then, you should be able to reinstall it with sudo yum install gnome-desktop But before you remove your desktop, do more research on this. I could be a bit off as to the repercussions of doing this and you could hose your system. If others could chime in on this method, I'd feel much more comfortable lol Anthony -- Anthony Papillion Phone: 1.918.533.9699 SIP: sip:cajuntechie@xxxxxxxxx iNum: +883510008360912 www.papillion.me -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
