Hello,

I installed slacko puppy to a very small computer (thin client). i want to run only one (server-)application on it, together with an ftp and vnc server. (vnc for remote control, ftp for when i need to exchange files with it)

All the rest of the programs, i don't need. (fe. write/calc/paint/...)
Is there some way to remove them from the system? (i only have a disk of 512MB...)
When i go to the PPM, i only can uninstall my installed programs (jre/vncserver/...)

already thanks!

You just have to use "menu -> Setup -> Remove builtin packages"
But be very careful what you are uninstalling, you don't want to remove useful dependencies and break your puppy! Wink Another way is to chose an appropriate pupplet, a smaller version of Puppy Linux. Good luck!

TinyCore is really great, very good suggestion! You can also try Browser Linux - http://www.browserlinux.com/ - (you will have to remove some packages to strip it down) or PupnGo - http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=51478 !
