Ubuntu Disalbe HUD service

I found that a program called hud-service was eating up my RAM, so I decided to disable it. This appears to be Ubuntu specific (e.g. not found in Xubuntu or Lubuntu etc). Rather than changing distro, I decided to just disable it.

Steps

64 bit Users

sudo chmod -x /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/hud/hud-service
sudo killall hud-service

32 bit Users

sudo chmod -x /usr/lib/indicator-appmenu/hud-service
sudo killall hud-service
