I’m adding multiple users as i follow the manjaro guide, and I have one microsd for manjaro,
my problem is that I noticed that the ram consumption was different from the one that should be with only one DE.
I would like to use only enlightenment sometimes.

No idea, if the packages are needed for enlightenment.
hy I’ve followed your suggestion, and I have been to delete xfce partially…
so the mem consumption has decreased and I’ve also installed another user to test the kde plasma.
thanks
now i have problem because i want to revert to an old kernel
somebody has written about it a way to do it but i assume you should know the old kernel name
