Why do you want to remove it?&nbsp; I think it 's part of the OS.&nbsp; If you don't want to use it just remove your Palm ID from pilot.<br>HLV<br><br><b><i>Jared &lt;jared.vanvolkenburg@gmail.com&gt;</i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> I am also trying to remove the Palm Pilot support from my system.

The palm pilot support should not be dependent on the desktop.  It<br>should be an accessory add on, and easy to remove, or not installed by<br>default.<br><br>2.  If an application appears in the Add / Remove Applications the user<br>should be able to remove it through there, without having to go into<br>Synaptic Package Manger and searching to find the individual
 packages<br>that may or may not be the correct packages to remove.  This may seem<br>easy for advanced users, but not for the common user.  If Ubuntu is to<br>be used by the 'everyman' and rolled out on Dell desktops, etc, adding<br>and removing programs using the Add / Remove Application utility should<br>be easier.
