Moving backwards with version numbers will undoubtedly wreak havoc on your box. A simple 'apt-get remove...' is pretty non-destructive and it leaves files and folders such as config files which will most likely confuse older versions.
Try to remove them as root in a terminal, i.e.: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -s enter your password and: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --purge <slimserver> (whatever your package is called. I think it's 'slimserver') This is supposed to remove all configuration files as well as the package itself. To check if anything is left on your system: [EMAIL PROTECTED] / -name *slim* will list everything with 'slim' in the file name. Remember *nix is case sensitive so maybe you will want to 'find' *Slim* as well. Some of the listed files might not have anything to do with Slimserver so be careful and make sure the file you are removing is something you want to remove.
