Just playing with a new system install from FC5 (currently updating to rawhide), and I noticed there's a lot of xorg-x11-drivers that I don't require... is there a way to remove these? as if I just try, say, "rpm -e xorg-x11-drv-vmware" then it says that it can't be removed because it's required by xorg-x11-drivers.
The first thing I thought of was to try --force, but then I remembered that --force only works for install and upgrades of packages.
Is this possible in FC?
I don't think it is a good idea, distribution-wise. If you ever upgade your graphic card, you will get a non-working system.
