I cannot uninstall Firefox, nor can I uninstall Chromium; one always stays if the other is uninstalled. For example, if I remove Firefox, Chromium will appear in its place and vice versa. This has got to be one of the weirdest bugs I've ever seen on Ubuntu! So, how can I uninstall both web browsers?
View 6 RepliesI don't know if this is the right place to be posting, sorry if it's not. Basically, my issue is I installed a Chrome addon, didn't like the functionality, removed it, and it altered functionality of Chromium as a whole. So I want to remove Chromium and all its settings, then do a completely fresh install. Currently everything I've tried brings up all my old tabs and settings after the reinstall, as if I'd never done anything at all.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI prefer chrome and now want to delete FF all together, under U software center there is no menu to delete FF. Is there another way to this without messing up?
I see Evolution on the menu that is installed by default. I don't use and want to delete, but only choice in the U software center is to "install". I sense this maybe a bug, is there a manual way without messing up?

Now I have multiple versions of Firefox all over my system. I just want to revert to the 3.6.6 in the Repositories, but whenever I try to launch "Firefox" from a terminal, I get one of my build versions instead. I've tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, and Synaptic says I have the right version installed, but I can't launch that version. Instead I get a build version. How can I remove all these builds and just start over?
How can I either fix or uninstall a broken Firefox 3.6.9 install. The install gets all the way through until it syops at "setting up firefox: Setting up firefox (3.6.9~hg20100817r34537+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~umd2~lucid) ... then it stops forever and now I can't find or install any updates at all. It tells me to fix by running: sudo dpkg --configure -a and around and around we go!

View 2 Replies View Relatedthe upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 has proved to be an unmitigated disaster for my netbook. I have no menus! Nothing at the top (i.e. the usual Gnome desktop with "Browse and run installed applications," "Applications," "Places," "System") and no Unity buttons available wherever I put the cursor.Plus, when the system goes to sleep and I press the power button to revive it, it reboots! I don't understand how v. 11.04 is an improvement over v. 10.10.
how I can uninstall v 11.04 -- bearing in mind I have no menus -- so I can reinstall v. 10.10?

I am having a bit of a problem with Wine as I cannot remove any of the programs that I have installed in it, namely Steam. Even if I try to uninstall wine via "sudo apt-get remove wine" I can still navigate to Steam through Applications - Wine - Programs - Steam. I don't know what to do. I've even tried the "Uninstall Wine Software" option to get rid of Steam but that has also failed.

Now I am having problems mainly my wireless network keeps connecting/disconnecting then sometimes asks for the password/key for the router etc.The system also got hung today and had to hard boot.
I am pretty sure one or some of the updates is responsible for this rather annoying problem, but I do not know how to undo the latest updates?The original install could not even pick up the wireless bcs it is a RealTek RTL8191SE NIC and this particular NIC had problems with Linux drivers! It started to work by itself after the 2nd or 3rd update.
