Removing modules and drivers not needed, minimizing Mint OS
by program1 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#55NKB)
Hi,
Linux Mint Mate 19.3 runs about 1.7GB of memory when I start it, with
no other apps running.
Is there a way to remove modules and divers from the kernel that are not needed ?, after the OS is installed.
I didn't know if Mint had a convenient way of doing that ?
