I found out myself. Just run msconfig from windows and disable the auto-starting of Xming and KDE Launcher. Reboot and run andLinux service. ssh into colinux and run following: apt-get remove kde and then apt-get autoremove All KDE utils will be removed and some 450MB space would be freed. KDE is now gone completely. Open /etc/profile and comment the following lines: #export DISPLAY=192.168.11.1:0.0 #export ESPEAKER=192.168.11.1:16001 #export PULSE_SERVER=192.168.11.1 Now you are all set for a putty(or other remote clients)-based console only system.
