Hello everyone,

When your applications are unused or already tested how do you delete them? And in which parts are stored?

thanks

They are stored in tce/optional.
Once loaded by ondemand, onboot, or tce-load, thay can only be properly unloaded by a reboot.
To remove them from your persistent storage, you use Apps to delete them.

Hi plug
Use the  Apps  utility to remove unwanted apps.

Or

1) remove from /tce/onboot.list
2) reboot
3) delete from /tce/optional
4) reboot

Please note, if it is a dependency of other apps removel will break them too.

That is why you should use the Apps utility.
It will not remove a package that is a dependency of another package.
It also removes any packages it depends upon if no other packages also depend upon them.
There is no need to remove them from onboot, as Apps does that for you.

hi,

unfortunately I can not use the program indicated 'Apps audit' but the program 'Apps' to uninstall app that I want to remove, but i thinks it's the same.

And I followed also the example 'the delete flash video' work but they are still stopped.

Will you help me?

I have tiny core version 5.2

Hi I'm still here for the reason that I can not uninstall the app 'xfe' and does not give me a way to use the file manage 'flwm' I prefer.

I followed the steps that you mentioned but nothing.

When I run tc @ box: ~ $ flwm from the terminal I get the answer:
  - Another window manager is running. You must exit it before running flwm.

How do I? I have to remove them one by one from the folder ?:

/mnt/sda1//tce/optional/xfe-common.tcz
/mnt/sda1//tce/optional/xfe-common.tcz.dep
/mnt/sda1//tce/optional/xfe-common.md5.txt
/mnt/sda1//tce/optional/xfe-locale.tcz
/mnt/sda1//tce/optional/xfe-locale.tcz.dep
/mnt/sda1//tce/optional/xfe-locale.md5.txt
/mnt/sda1//tce/optional/xfe.tcz
/mnt/sda1//tce/optional/xfe.tcz.dep
/mnt/sda1//tce/optional/xfe.tcz.md5.txt

It seems a strange thing, but the name xfe.tcz does not exist inside /tce/onboot.lst

Your onboot.lst is found in /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/

yes, but what means it.

There is two file onboot.lst, the first in /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/, and the second in /tce/onboot.lst, they are equal

If your tce directory in in '/' you have not have a persistent tce directory, and cannot remove packages or edit onboot.lst.
Please read the book.

Hi Gerald,

I gave up. I had messed up the whole system and I preferred to continue reinstall the partition sda1.

I also installed a very simple file manager like Fluff finding none other currently.

My tce directory is not directly in '/' but in / mnt / sda1 / tce / .....

You mean like this?
