I just upgraded to Karmic (so far, so good :D). However, when I got to the step where we are offered the option of keeping or removing obsolete packages, I accidentally selected keep. How can I reidentify these obsolete packages and remove them? Thanks

sudo apt-get autoremove

Will tidy things up for you.
