I have installed a tiny calc and pegboard and fireworks for desktop from the mydsl mirror folder. the calc and peg are to tiny to see and do not resize..they are on the dsl menu and I can open but not turn off..I switched from flux to jwm to turn them off..and stayed as I like the symetry at the bottom as a bar..would like to uninstall these and find better.
how do I uninstall a program ..thanks for any help..I lovdsl and want to get a grip on it.
I have installed to hd if this helps.

This copied and pasted from the web page that hosts the mydsl extensions.

ALL DSL Extensions are made exclusively for Damn Small Linux.
This requires loading them from within DSL, as user dsl.
They are made for the liveCD and "frugal" type installs.
They do not provide package management, simply reboot.
While not made for hard drive installed systems.
most will work however it is not recommended.
