How can someone switch from Kubuntu to Ubuntu?
I need the OS to be more lighter than Kubuntu, so I need things to be unistalled from Kubuntu and the LXDE to be installed.
I am talking about 11.10 .
EDIT: I care alot if my system will be lightweight!
This PC is very old.(512 MB RAM)

It may be better to do those operations from a TTY not from a terminal, do CTRL+ALT+F1 and logon on a real TTY.
Optionnal : Uninstall Kubuntu desktop
sudo apt-get purge kubuntu-desktop
-> It's optionnal because you can have both environements installed but only one running.Then remove it dependencies
sudo apt-get autoremove --purge
After that, install the lubuntu desktop
sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
Then,
reboot
your machine.Be carefull : this process might corrupt the system, do a backup before proceed.
