Interesting I've as simialr problem. Due to some dependency problems I
decided to remove the yast2* packages. After resolving the dependency
problem I installed the suse-7.3 yast2* via rpm -vih. An rpm -qa | grep
yast2 shows around 15-20 or so packages available. Though in the
SuSE->System->Configuration shows only 3 items (yast2 and 2 modules). When I
run yast2 there are only 2 modules shown. What could be wrong?
