Personalmente no soy muy fanatico de gNome, y por mas que he tratado de que me guste siempre paro instalando KDE en Ubuntu. Si ya se que existe KUbuntu pero ese no es el punto.

El punto es que en mis escritorios siempre los trabajo sobre Debian, pero esta distro de linux, ya sea netinstall o el DVD completo siempre instalan gnome como escritorio predeterminado. Si son como yo que prefieren KDE al gnome aca estan un par de tips para desintalar gnome ya sea de Debian o Ubuntu.

Para eliminar gnome pueden teclear el siguiente comando;

deathbian:~# apt-get remove gnome gnome-utils gnome-core gnome-desktop-data gnome-desktop-environment
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

Package gnome is not installed, so not removed
Package gnome-core is not installed, so not removed
Package gnome-desktop-environment is not installed, so not removed
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libterm-readline-perl-perl
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  alacarte bug-buddy fast-user-switch-applet gnome-about gnome-applets gnome-control-center gnome-desktop-data
  gnome-panel gnome-terminal gnome-utils nautilus nautilus-cd-burner nautilus-sendto nautilus-share ubuntu-desktop
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 15 to remove and 87 not upgraded.
After this operation, 34.0MB disk space will be freed.

El comando anterior se encargara de desaparecer el escritorio gnome del sistema, pero prefiero utilizar aptitude ya que este se encarga de mucha mas dependencias y extras que instalo gnome.

Tambien existen otros escritorios mas livianos que gnome o kde, si quieren instalar Blackbox, Enlightenment o Fluxbox y quieren desinstalar kde pueden teclear los mismos comandos anteriores solo reemplazando kde por gnome.
