I mainly use Unity, but I installed gnome with:
sudo apt-get install gnome-session-fallback
To test how it was, but then I managed to delete all of my settings for my startup applications, so basically Gnome does not load properly now. And what I really need to do is to reinstall Gnome, but when I try just first of all uninstalling it with:
sudo apt-get purge gnome-session-fallback
This does not remove all of those 50-100 extra Gnome packages which it installed when I first installed it. So that is really my question, how do I fully remove Gnome and all of the extra packages installed by gnome-session-fallback
, so that I can reinstall?
