@pepe-verde Lubuntu is roughly speaking Ubuntu server with the LXDE environment. It should work, although maybe there are some packages in this line of code that will be missing.

Thank you so much Nick! I'll try the sudo apt-get remove option first and if not then consider switching to ArchLinux. Wish me luck :)

Maybe add mines majong and sudoku as this was not removed on 22.04 and this was top google result.

the remaing pakets :
aisleriot brltty cheese deja-dup duplicity gnome-accessibility-themes
gnome-mahjongg gnome-mines gnome-sudoku gnome-video-effects

Thanks

If someone wants to make a full command here that works, I'll happily replace the one above so its updated :)

This command works in bash on ubuntu 22.04LTS as of 4th of jan 2024, I split it into multiple lines for easy removal/addition in future:

Thanks @mdemerson

@NickSeagull just a heads up, I will be including this command in a blog post here soon. Was trying to get an Ubuntu VM up and running for a Workshop I hosted and your command came in handy when dealing with performance issues.
The blog will be up sometime next week on my LinkedIn page: LinkedIn.com/in/CalvinWorst

Edit: typo

Lovely, glad that this has been useful @CalvinWorst :)

for 24.04 LTS?
