kernel and apps issues
Noob here. First off, thanks to everyone who has made it possible for those of us who have waited quite some time to get away from the Microsoft Monopoly. Ubuntu is by far the best Linux learning platform I have found, and the support behind it is awsome to say the least.
Now for my questions. I substituted the 386 kernel for the AMD K7 kernel. My box is running an AMD XP2400 ThunderChicken. She's running fine, but the updater still wants to upgrade the 386 kernel I uninstalled. Do I need it? Can the box run with both kernels installed?
My second question is how can I uninstall applications that were loaded automatically? When I try to use Synaptic or Add/Remove, they want to uninstall ubuntu-desktop as well. I don't want to lose my setup, and several of the apps I will never use like OpenOffice.Org. I prefer and installed Abiword.
