ASUS DGX Spark Bloatware Removal: Clean Up Ubuntu for a Real Professional Setup
In this video, I show how to remove preinstalled bloatware from the ASUS DGX Spark / NVIDIA DGX Spark running Ubuntu. Even though this machine is positioned as a professional AI workstation or developer device, it comes with unnecessary apps like Solitaire, Sudoku, Mines, Mahjong, Calendar, and LibreOffice. I walk through the cleanup process step by step and show how to make the system feel leaner, cleaner, and more professional.
