gnome-shell (version 3.2.2.1-0ubuntu0.1) will be re-installed "

I want to remove everything that has and ever had with bluetooth to do. And the reason to openssh-client is removed is that i often felt like i connect to a remote server without knowing it(Iknow, it sound paranoid, but it is possible if it is someone i know) So is it a problem to to this action in synaptic?

Much of the packages will be removed because i remove some of the others, cant see why it asked to remove gnome-shell when i tried to only remove bluez? Have can you find out if rootkits are ok in linux?

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to do, but that doesn't look good. You're reinstalling gnome shell and installing unity, and that shouldn't happen. Rooktkits are never "ok," they're by definition harmful. You can theoretically get a rootkit, but I highly doubt that would happen, there really aren't any known rootkits for linux. If you really want to see if you have any install chrootkit or rootkit hunter (see here http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Oneiric#Rootkit_checkers). It also has firewalls and av tools, but again I don't see the point. I wouldn't remove these things because you seem to be removing a lot of important packages, although I don't see anything that would completely destroy your system. If you go through with that, though, I'm not responsible for what happens.

if its not broken i havent tried to fix it! What is with you guys and just answering what you mean before answering the question, and dont look at reinstalling gnome, look at what i plan to remove, and please dont answer if you really dont know it your self, you just like to chat!!

And by the way it is no problem running unity in mint, i have done it already. Please im not a fcking noob, i just dont know what every thing is, and iam understanding more and more that mint is a childish version of ubuntu!

The update is just a mess, and what is it with the logo's? And the standard colours? confused? Im sorry, but havent mint been around a few years? Shouldt this be a revolutinary mint version?

I know i make many of you pissed with this comments, myself too. But the truth is that is true. And the fact that nobody of you really thinks it is virus on linux is just(not worth commenting)

And worst of all is the network manager, it seems like it is downgraded from ubuntu to nubuntu or something

Looking at that list, you will definitally remove a lot of essential packages required by Gnome.

Which program you're using to remove it? Synaptic? Or is it a terminal command?

I really just use synaptic, choose bluez(For bluetooth transfer etc) and ssh remote desktop client, and when i clicked ok it said i had to uninstall all that, i cant either understand why it is that much.. And why i had to remove gnome-shell to remove bluez ?

[freesource]

And when i first have started whining, is it only me that have problems with the software manager? With problems i mean everytime i install something it dont appear that its installed inside "software manager" and the same when i remove.. I have to go out and in to see the change? Is that the same for everyone?

The only reason i can think of is that bluez is a part of the gnome-shell. Removing a package which is a part of the gnome-shell will lead to removing the gnome shell itself.

Gnome Shell (as well as Cinnamon) depends on bluez because of the Bluetooth tray icon, which is not in a seperate bluetooth package but in gnome-shell itself.

I see there's already an issue about that, but there are no comments yet.

Yeah i know, and a BIG SORRY to all of you, it was without purpose i was tired, havent slept for some days and i have body pains++ But every time i ask a question on a forum online with people that can more than other they almost always start arguing around the question instead of around what can be the answer or try to read the question again to see what people really meant or tried to ask for, just with wrong words, that is at least what i do(But remember, some of us strugge just to find the right words in english, specially computer language and then linux at it all(And to top that up, hackers!)..

I was thinking about deleting that files to be sure the system isnt corrupt. Because it really seems like it(All since ive got hacked last time, but in windows) But at this network ++ i have had a lot of problems and are trying to figuring out if someone really are hacking me or if i have got a little extra paranoid after that. I know it happnend in windows, but here im really not sure what to see for..

When i do netstat i just get a lot of random info i cant handle at all, when i do "netstat | grep tcp" i only get the tcp connections.. Or "netstat | grep udp" But i really cant no more of commands that work anymore. Back in redhat i mean it was much easier commands(but it may just be me..)

It was because a guy said i could use it so typed the output here and thinked maybe he could read it for me, can someone read it?


AGAIN; SORRY FOR THE COMMENTS EARLIER TO ALL OF YOU, I LOVE ALL OF YOU PEOPLE THAT ARE WORKING FOR A FREE COMMUNITY

It's all good.

As far as rkhunter goes...IF you have reason to suspect you ran a script with elevated privileges (root), then I'd install rkhunter, else there's not too much to worry about.

IF you are just exploring the "how do I do that in Linux" type of stuff (I gather from your other post viewtopic.php?f=90&t=100315&p=570660 that you are maybe new to Linux?)
then these types of questions are to be expected.

"If it's not broke, don't fix it" is a mantra that not only applies to Linux but everything, yes?

I'd be curious why you want to remove Bluetooth...there is very little risk in leaving unused programs on your Linux System.
They occupy far less room/disk space than their Windows counterparts.

Is is not better to have it on the system and not need it than need it and not have it?

Peace.

I see at bluetooth at the biggest risk to get in for hacker e.g on a ubuntu system. Windows to for that matter. But it is an exploict that can be used very easily, and since ive got hacked without ethernet and with wifi of in bios im pretty sure he used bluetooth(my neigbour) that time, and then started wifi(since i cant "hard turn it off" just some silly visual unicorns!

That was the other computer, and now i cant get git in bios on this one since my old school had the password..

Peace.
