DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: Remove fonts to make more space?



Code Sample
root@ttyp0[dsl]# du -s /KNOPPIX/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/*
4046    /KNOPPIX/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi
102     /KNOPPIX/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings
1       /KNOPPIX/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/fonts.cache-1
1249    /KNOPPIX/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
170     /KNOPPIX/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/util
root@ttyp0[dsl]#

75dpi look like ~4Mb to me
Total Size: 3.64 Mbytes
in  407 Files
and 1 Directories

output from emelfm's du

would be good to have better software instead of fonts :)
Total Size: 5.08 Mbytes
in  544 Files
and 6 Directories

this is sie of the dsl-0.8.4 fonts dir
so it allready dropped 1.5 Mb

some people ( me, adrakker) had small problems with the removal of some font-files from the 0.8.4.
nothing to worry about (i have fixt it). but a further cut in the fonts may give more problems.
