Folks, This has probably been hashed out any number of times, but I don't have weeks to spend, I have a server that is being brought to its knees thanks to KDE4. I desperately need: 1. A way to turn OFF akonadi server for all users _without_ removing kdepim. Removing akonadi wants to remove kdepim, but some teachers are using kdepim and want to continue. Is there a master control? I don't relish spending days logging into hundreds of students and teachers accounts to turn akonadi off. (I should probably say that I have a fairly powerful X server and a lot of X terminals/thin clients -- the system usually ran between 0.1-0.2 load until KDE4 was introduced, and now the load with 20+ students logged in is over 50.0 and slow to do anything -- /home usage also went from 20% to 92% overnight -- WTFO???). 2. A way to remove all the My-not-really-SQL-SQL cruft (MySQL rant deleted). KDE4 for some bizarre reason depends on MySQL. I run PostgreSQL with a number of databases, and don't want the headache of a non-ACID POS on the system. Seems I can't remove this junk without removing KDE4. (Ser ver runs Debian Squeeze). Pointers to the correct FM to R appreciated -- Google was no help. Or do I need to switch the school over to Gnome? TIA, David A.
