purging config file on /home

[jepong]

Good Day!

May question seems advance for a beginner question but I hope you can help...

I've been a Kubuntu user for 4 months and I want to go back using Ubuntu and Gnome. I have my /home on another partition so i can easily format my root for a new installation and skip format on /home but before that i wanna delete the hidden folders/config files on /home... how would I do that?

Thanks

Why not just delete the folders from Dolphin?

Thats what i'm thinking to do later. :p

Yeah. But some folders might just reappear (~/.kde4 for instance) when you cleanup from within a running KDE instance.

Just before when you are about to install, from the Ubuntu Live CD desktop, choose Places -> <your home partition>. It should automount and allow you to browse the contents. You may now delete the folders that you don't need.
