Yes, you do, but your system is broken and it does not work.
I have installed openSUSE 12.2 on three different computers. I installed packages only from openSUSE repos using YaST, and the systems have no package dependency issues.
Still the systmectl and or init command you are referring does not work in any of these 3 systems.
Are any or all 3 actually upgrades from 12.1, rather than "installations"?
That is, what you are saying can be translated as:
openSUSE 12.2 system is broken and it does not work.
If upgrades, maybe it's actually the upgrade process that is/was broken.
Apart from the above there should be some solution to restart x server. Maybe by killing and starting the x-server directly. Is it possible? Which process should be killed/started?
Something to try, especially if upgrades:
If sysvinit-init is installed, replace it with systemd-sysvinit. If systemd-sysvinit is installed, replace it with sysvinit-init. Systemd was still rather far from complete in 12.2, and might be poorly compatible with whatever your deviations from default may be.
I should have added that I was using sysvinit in 12.2 as systemd was nothing but pre-alpha software passed off as something usable. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
