Ubuntu 11.04 : Have Minimalstic & Faster


Initially  it is made this for Linux Mint setup, but it can be also used for Ubuntu. It is  recommended to run these commands right after installation of Mint/Ubuntu before installing any software and system update to avoid removal of any packages you have installed. Just open the terminal and execute the following command.

Now with its best speed
# Remove Unnecessary Packages and Games
