Hello guys, once again. Many thanks to the previous responders to my question 'Customizing the console - Changing the resolution'. Their answers were exactly what I was looking for. I am tempted to ask you, readers of this news-group, a question again, but I promise I'll try not overwhelm you with my questions. I needed to ask you because I didn't want to reinvent the wheel. Here is my question: Is there any way to uninstall a set of applications (the application that are interrelated through dependencies)? The reason I need to do that is because I've installed Gnome 1.4 on a clean OS, but soon I realized I wanted Gnome 2. In the process of installing Gnome 1.4 pkg_add has installed many additional software that were needed for Gnome 1.4. If I want to uninstall Gnome 1.4, pkg_delete would leave the rest on my machine which I definitely don't need them, and will have problem I if I were to install Gnome 2.0.
