check the man page for rpm....

uninstall - rpm -e packagename

list ALL installed - rpm -qa

To get detailed info on a specific package, type: rpm -qi <packagename>. To list all the files within a package, type: rpm -ql <packagename>. To find out more about the rpm command, click here.

Oh, almost forgot, if you intend to install/uninstall/upgrade packages, you have to run rpm as root.
