I'm very new to Linux. I thought having a GUI would be nice, but it is using too much RAM so I'd like to just use the regular terminal for now. I have Ubuntu 12.04 server with XFCE installed.

How can I uninstall all GUI related packages and everything that came with them?

To remove XFCE completely along with its installed packages do as

sudo apt-get purge $(dpkg -l | awk '/[X,x]fce/{print $2}')

That will do the part. Hope that helps.
