I'm less worried about deleting the kernels themselves and associated stuff in /boot as I am the other crap that came along with them. Looking just now, I see linux-headers extending back to 2.6.31-21, for instance. stuff not so much out of fear it'll do any harm but because it's messy and takes up space. I wish there were a utility -- I understand why there can't really be one -- that would go over a system and identify everything that is no use to anyone anymore and never will be. I think if I looked carefully in ~/ I could find some backed-up config files from KDE-2.x. But invariably when I go on a cleaning rampage I end up deleting one thing more than I should have . . . -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/
